Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (0,3,0,-3,0,1).

Formula

From Bruno Berselli, May 06 2011: (Start)

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

a(n) = ((1+2*n-n^2)*(-1)^n -(1-2*n-n^2))/8.

a(n) = a(n-2) + A124625(n) for n>1. (End)

Maple

f:=n-> if n mod 2 = 0 then n/2 else (n^2-1)/4; fi;

Mathematica
