COMMENTS

With a leading zero, this is the second binomial transform of the octagonal numbers A000567 and the binomial transform of A084857. - Paul Barry, Jun 09 2003

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..23.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (9,-27,27).

FORMULA

a(n) = n^2 * 3^(n-1).

E.g.f.: exp(3x)(x+3x^2). - Paul Barry, Jul 23 2003

a(n) = 9*a(n-1)-27*a(n-2)+27*a(n-3). G.f.: x*(1+3*x)/(1-3*x)^3. - Colin Barker, Aug 10 2012

G.f.: 1 + 12*x/(G(0) - 12*x), where G(k)= 1 + 12*x + 2*k*(6*x+1) + (1+3*x)*k^2 - 3*x*(k+1)^2*(k+3)^2/G(k+1) ; (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jul 05 2013

MATHEMATICA
