Formula

O.g.f.: (x+2)/(2*x^2+2*x+1). a(n) = 2*A108520(n)+A108520(n-1). - R. J. Mathar, Feb 05 2008

a(n) = (1 - I/2)*(-1 - I)^n + (1 + I/2)*(-1 + I)^n, n>=0. - Taras Goy, Apr 20 2019

a(n) = -2*a(n-1)-2*a(n-2) for n > 1. - Chai Wah Wu, May 19 2025

E.g.f.: exp(-x)*(2*cos(x) - sin(x)). - Stefano Spezia, May 19 2025

Maple
