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

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (0,5,0,-4).

Formula

G.f.: (1+x-2*x^2-4*x^3)/(1-5*x^2+4*x^4).

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

a(n) = (4*4^floor(n/2)-1)/3 - 2*floor(2^n/3).

a(n) = 4*4^floor(n/2)/3 - 2*2^n/3 - (-1)^n/3 + 2/3.

a(n) = A002450(floor(n/2)+1) - 2*A000975(n-1).
