Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..200

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (14,-61,84).

Formula

From Mohammad K. Azarian, Dec 28 2008: (Start)

G.f.: 1/(1-3*x) + 1/(1-4*x) + 1/(1-7*x).

E.g.f.: exp(3*x) + exp(4*x) + exp(7*x). (End)

a(n) = 14*a(n-1) - 61*a(n-2) + 84*a(n-3).
