Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,2,-2,-1,1).

Formula

G.f.: x^2*(13+24*x+13*x^2)/((1+x)^2*(1-x)^3).

a(n) = (50*n*(n-1)+(2*n-1)*(-1)^n+1)/8.

a(n) = a(n-1)+2*a(n-2)-2*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5).

Sum_{n>=2} 1/a(n) = 25/144 - tan(Pi/50)*Pi/12. - Amiram Eldar, Feb 16 2023
