COMMENTS
Sequence is identical to its fifth differences. - Paul Curtz, Jun 18 2008
{A139398, A133476, A139714, A139748, A139761} is the difference analog of the hyperbolic functions of order 5, {h_1(x), h_2(x), h_3(x), h_4(x), h_5 (x)}. For a definition see [Erdelyi] and the Shevelev link. - Vladimir Shevelev, Jun 28 2017
This is the p-INVERT of (1,1,1,1,1,...) for p(S) = 1 - S^5; see A291000. - Clark Kimberling, Aug 24 2017

FORMULA
a(n) = A049016(n-4). - R. J. Mathar, Nov 08 2010
From Paul Curtz, Jun 18 2008: (Start)
a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + 2*a(n-5).
a(n) = A139398(n+1) - A139398(n). (End)
G.f.: x^4/((1-2*x)*(1-3*x+4*x^2-2*x^3+x^4)). - Maksym Voznyy (voznyy(AT)mail.ru), Aug 12 2009
a(n) = round((2/5)*(2^(n-1) + phi^n*cos(Pi*(n-8)/5))), where phi is the golden ratio, round(x) is the integer nearest to x. - Vladimir Shevelev, Jun 28 2017
a(n+m) = a(n)*H_1(m) + H_4(n)*H_2(m) + H_3(n)*H_3(m) + H_2(n)*H_4(m) + H_1(n)*a(m), where H_1=A139398, H_2=A133476, H_3=A139714, H_4=A139748. - Vladimir Shevelev, Jun 28 2017
