Formula

Euler transform of length 6 sequence [ 2, -3, -2, 0, 0, 2]. - Michael Somos, Mar 19 2011

a(n) is multiplicative with a(2^e) = -(-2)^e if e>0, a(3^e) = 0^e, a(p^e) = p^e if p == 1 (mod 6), a(p^e) = (-p)^e if p == 5 (mod 6). - Michael Somos, Mar 19 2011

G.f.: x*(1 - x^2)^3 *(1 - x^3)^2 / ((1 - x)^2 *(1 - x^6)^2) = x *(1 + x)^2 *(1 - x^2) / (1 + x^3)^2. - Michael Somos, Mar 19 2011

a(3*n) = 0, a(3*n + 1) = (-1)^n * (3*n + 1), a(3*n + 2) = (-1)^n * (3*n + 2). a(-n) = a(n). - Michael Somos, Mar 19 2011

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

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) -3*a(n-2) +2*a(n-3) -a(n-4).

a(n) = n*Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} (-1)^k*binomial(n-k,k)*(n-2k)/(n-k).

Example

x + 2*x^2 - 4*x^4 - 5*x^5 + 7*x^7 + 8*x^8 - 10*x^10 - 11*x^11 + 13*x^13 + ...
