Colin Barker, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,16,-16,-1,1).

Formula

a(n) = a(n-1)+16*a(n-2)-16*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5) for n>5.

G.f.: 14*x*(x^4+4*x^3-13*x^2-32*x-2) / ((x-1)*(x^4-16*x^2+1)).

Example

28 is in the sequence because (28+84)^3 - 28^3 = 1176^2.
