This sequence was described by Magnitsky, Leontiy Filippovich (1669-1739), author of "The Russian Mathematical Encyclopedia" (1703) and other books. See the Kvant link. Magnitsky wrote it as a(n) = 143n*777. - Oleg Zyakun, Feb 28 2009

FORMULA
G.f.: 111111*x/(1-x)^2. - Vincenzo Librandi, Feb 29 2012
From Elmo R. Oliveira, Sep 15 2024: (Start)
E.g.f.: 111111*x*exp(x).
a(n) = a(n-1) + 111111 for n > 1.
a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n > 2. (End)
