Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (6,-13,12,-4).

Formula

From Colin Barker, Apr 06 2012: (Start)

a(n) = 6*a(n-1)-13*a(n-2)+12*a(n-3)-4*a(n-4).

G.f.: (1-5*x+11*x^2-8*x^3)/((1-x)^2*(1-2*x)^2). (End)

a(n) = A000337(n) - (n-1). - Andrew Penland , Mar 24 2016

E.g.f.: exp(x)*(2 - x + exp(x)*(2*x - 1)). - Stefano Spezia, Apr 10 2022
