FORMULA
|
a(n) = 2^(1/4*(2*n-1+(-1)^n)).
G.f.: x*(1+2*x)/(1-2*x^2).
G.f.: x / (1 - 2*x / (1 + x / (1 + x))) = x * (1 + 2*x / (1 - x / (1 - x / (1 + 2*x)))). - Michael Somos, Jan 03 2013
From R. J. Mathar, Aug 06 2009: (Start)
a(n) = A131572(n).
a(n) = A060546(n-1), n > 1. (End)
a(n+3) = a(n+2)*a(n+1)/a(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 04 2011
a(n) = |A009116(n-1)| + |A009545(n-1)|. - Bruno Berselli, May 30 2011

Equals A016116 without initial 1. Unsigned version of A152166.
Partial sums are in A136252. a(n) = A051032(n)-1.
Binomial transform is A078057, second binomial transform is A007070, third binomial transform is A102285, fourth binomial transform is A163350, fifth binomial transform is A163346.
Cf. A000079 (powers of 2), A136252, A051032.
The following sequences are all essentially the same, in the sense that they are simple transformations of each other, with A029744 = {s(n), n>=1}, the numbers 2^k and 3*2^k, as the parent: A029744 (s(n)); A052955 (s(n)-1), A027383 (s(n)-2), A354788 (s(n)-3), A347789 (s(n)-4), A209721 (s(n)+1), A209722 (s(n)+2), A343177 (s(n)+3), A209723 (s(n)+4); A060482, A136252 (minor differences from A354788 at the start); A354785 (3*s(n)), A354789 (3*s(n)-7). The first differences of A029744 are 1,1,1,2,2,4,4,8,8,... which essentially matches eight sequences: A016116, A060546, A117575, A131572, A152166, A158780, A163403, A320770. The bisections of A029744 are A000079 and A007283. - N. J. A. Sloane, Jul 14 2022
