Formula

G.f.: (-7-4*x+2*x^2)/(x-1)^3.

a(n) = a(n-1)+9*(n+1) = (14+27*n+9*n^2)/2.

a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-a(n-2) +9.

a(n) = 3*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2)+a(n-3).

a(n) mod 9 = A153466(n) mod 9 = 7.

Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 1/2-2*Pi*sqrt(3)/45 = 0.2581600... - R. J. Mathar, Apr 07 2011

a(n) = A133694(n+1) + 6*A000217(n+1). - Leo Tavares, Mar 24 2022
