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

Formula

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

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + a(n-2) - 2*a(n-3), n>2.

a(n) = 2^n + periodic sequence of length 2: repeat [2, -1].

a(n) = 2^(n+2) - A280173(n).

a(n+2) = a(n) + 3*2^n, a(0) = 3, a(1) = 1.
