G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000 (terms 0..218 from Vincenzo Librandi)
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,1).
FORMULA
a(n) = 2*a(n-1)+a(n-2) for n > 1; a(0) = 3, a(1) = 11.
a(n) = ((3+4*sqrt(2))*(1+sqrt(2))^n + (3-4*sqrt(2))*(1-sqrt(2))^n)/2.
G.f.: (3+5*x)/(1-2*x-x^2).
E.g.f.: (3*cosh(sqrt(2)*x) + 4*sqrt(2)*sinh(sqrt(2)*x))*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Sep 13 2017
