COMMENTS

Former name: a(n) = leftmost term of M^n * [1,0,0,0,0,0] where M is the 6 X 6 matrix [1,2,3,4,5,6; 2,3,1,5,6,4; 3,1,2,6,4,5; 4,6,5,1,3,2; 5,4,6,2,1,3; 6,5,4,3,2,1].

M is a multiplication table for the symmetric group of degree 3 (S_3).

FORMULA

G.f.: x*(1 +82*x +366*x^2 -189*x^3)/((1+3*x)*(1+9*x)*(1-21*x)). - Colin Barker, Dec 13 2012

From G. C. Greubel, Nov 14 2022: (Start)

a(n) = (9*(21)^n + 9*(-9)^n + 24*(-3)^n + 18*[n=1] - 42*[n=0])/54.

E.g.f.: (1/54)*(-42 + 18*x + 24*exp(-3*x) + 9*exp(-9*x) + 9*exp(21*x)). (End)
