Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,3,-4,-4).

Formula

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

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

a(n)= sum( sum( (-1)^(j+k)*(j+k)*C(n-k+j,j), j=0..k), k=0..n)

a(n)= sum( n*C(n, k)*2F1( (1, -k); -n )(-1), k=0..n)

a(n)=sum( sum( (-1)^j*n*C(n-j,k-j), j=0..k), k=0..n)

a(n)= sum( (1+2*k)*C(n+1, k+1)*2F1( (1, n+2); k+2 )(-1) - C(n+2, k+2) 2F1( (2, n+3); k+3 )(-1) - (-1)^(k) * 2^(k-n-2) * (n-3*k+1) , k=0..n)

with C(n,k) the binomial coefficient and 2F1( ) the hypergeometric function.
