%N A024494 prefixed by a 0.

%C Binomial transform of 0, 1, 0. Also A024495 = first differences.

%C Recurrence: a(n+1) - 2*a(n) = 1, 0, -1, -1, 0, 1, 1.

%C {A024493, A131708, A024495} is the difference analog of the hyperbolic functions {h_1(x), h_2(x), h_3(x)} of order 3. For the definitions of {h_i(x)} and the difference analog {H_i(n)} see [Erdelyi] and the Shevelev link respectively. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Aug 01 2017

%F Recurrences:

%F a(n) = k*a(n-1) + (6-3*k)*a(n-2) + (3*k-7)*a(n-3) + (6-2*k)*a(n-4).

%F k = 0: a(n) = 6*a(n-2) - 7*a(n-3) + 6*a(n-4).

%F k = 1: a(n) = a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2) - 4*a(n-3) + 4*a(n-4).

%F k = 2: a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-3) + 2*a(n-4), cf. A113405, A135350.

%F k = 3: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + 2*a(n-3), this sequence.

%F k = 4: a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 5*a(n-3) - 2*a(n-4), cf. A111927.

%F k = 5: a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 9*a(n-2) + 8*a(n-3) - 4*a(n-4), cf. A137221.

%F The sum of coefficients = 5 - k. Of the family k=3 gives the best recurrence.

%F a(n+m) = a(n)*A024493(m) + A024493(n)*a(m) + A024495(n)*A024495(m). - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Aug 01 2017

%F From _Kevin Ryde_, Sep 24 2020: (Start)

%F a(n) = (1/3)*2^n - (1/3)*cos((1/3)*Pi*n) + (1/sqrt(3))*sin((1/3)*Pi*n). [Cournot]

%F a(n) + A024495(n) + A111927(n) = 2^n - 1. [Cournot, page 96 last formula, but misprint should be 2^x - 1 rather than 2^p - 1]. (End)

%F a(n) = C(n,1) + C(n,4) + ... + C(n, 3*floor(n/3)+1). - _Jianing Song_, Oct 04 2021
