G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,0,-1,2).

Formula

a(n+1) - 2*a(n) = 0, 1, -1, 0, -1, 1, ... is the hexaperiodic A092220 (corrected Sep 24 2007).

O.g.f.: x^2*(1-x)/((1+x)*(1-2*x)*(1-x+x^2)). - R. J. Mathar, Nov 23 2007

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-2} A001045(n-k+1)*binomial(k,n-k-2). - Paul Barry, Apr 22 2009

a(n) = (1/18)*( 2^(n+1) + 4*(-1)^n - 3*((-1)^floor((n+1)/3) + (-1)^floor((n+2)/3)) ). - G. C. Greubel, Nov 21 2019
