%N The icosagen sequence : a(n) = A018227(n)-5, for n >= 2.

%C Terms up to 113 are the atomic numbers of the elements of group 13 in the periodic table. Those elements are also called icosagens.

%H G. C. Greubel, <a href="/A271997/b271997.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 2..1000</a>

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_06">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (2, 1, -4, 1, 2, -1).

%F From _G. C. Greubel_, Jun 23 2016: (Start)

%F a(n) = n*((n+3)^2 + 2)/6 + (n+2)*(1+(-1)^n)/4 - 6, for n >= 2.

%F a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + a(n-2) - 4*a(n-3) + a(n-4) + 2*a(n-5) - a(n-6).

%F G.f.: x^2 * (5 + 3*x - 6*x^3 - x^4 + 3*x^5)/( (1-x)^4 * (1+x)^2 ). (End)
