Adi Dani, Restricted compositions of natural numbers

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (7,-20,28,-14,-14,28,-20,7,-1).

Formula

a(n) = ((n + 1)^7 + (1 + (-1)^n)/2 )/2.

G.f.: ( 1 + 57*x + 666*x^2 + 1786*x^3 + 1821*x^4 + 645*x^5 + 64*x^6 ) / ( (1+x)*(x-1)^8 ). - R. J. Mathar, Jun 08 2011

Example

a(1)=64 and compositions of even natural numbers into 7 parts no greater than 1 are
:(0,0,0,0,0,0,0) --> 7!/7!0! =  1
:(0,0,0,0,0,1,1) --> 7!/5!2! = 21
:(0,0,0,1,1,1,1) --> 7!/3!4! = 35
:(0,1,1,1,1,1,1) --> 7!/1!6! =  7
