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

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (4, -2).

Formula

a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) for n>1; a(0) = 5, a(1) = 12.

G.f.: (5-8*x)/(1-4*x+2*x^2).

From G. C. Greubel, Oct 02 2018: (Start)

a(2*n) = 2^(n-1)*(Q(2*n+1) + 4*Q(2*n)), where Q(m) = Pell-Lucas numbers.

a(2*n+1) = 2^(n+1)*(P(2*n+2) + 4*P(2*n+1)), where P(m) = Pell numbers. (End)

a(n) = 5*A007070(n)-8*A007070(n-1). - R. J. Mathar, Feb 04 2021
