Alois P. Heinz, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (9, -36, 84, -126, 126, -84, 36, -9, 1).

Formula

G.f.: -2*x*(85*x^6+1695*x^5+7134*x^4+8254*x^3+2769*x^2+219*x+4)/(x-1)^9.

a(1) = 8, else a(n) = (n^9-n)/(n-1).

a(0)=0, a(1)=8, a(2)=510, a(3)=9840, a(4)=87380, a(5)=488280, a(6)=2015538, a(7)=6725600, a(8)=19173960, a(n)=9*a(n-1)-36*a(n-2)+84*a(n-3)- 126*a(n-4)+ 126*a(n-5)- 84*a(n-6)+36*a(n-7)-9*a(n-8)+a(n-9). - Harvey P. Dale, Jan 28 2014

Maple

a:= n-> `if`(n=1, 8, (n^9-n)/(n-1)):
seq(a(n), n=0..30);
