%N Number of walks of length n between two adjacent nodes in the cycle graph C_7.

%C In general, a(n,m) = 2^n/m*Sum_{k=0..m-1} cos(2*Pi*k/m)^(n+1) counts walks of length n between two adjacent nodes in the cycle graph C_m.

%F a(n) = 2^n/7*Sum_{k=0..6} cos(2*Pi*k/7)^(n+1).

%F G.f.: x(1-x-x^2) / ((1-2x)(1+x-2x^2-x^3)).

%t f[n_] := FullSimplify[ TrigToExp[ 2^n/7 Sum[ Cos[2Pi*k/7]^(n + 1), {k, 0, 6}]]]; Table[ f[n], {n, 0, 34}] (* _Robert G. Wilson v_, Jun 01 2004 *)

%Y Equals A095307(n+1) - A095308(n-1).

%K easy,nonn
