Comments

A floretion-generated sequence of squares. This sequence is related to several other sequences of squares.

Floretion Algebra Multiplication Program, FAMP Code: 4ibaseiseq[ x*(+ 'i + 'j + i' + j' + 'ii' + 'jj' + 'ij' + 'ji' + e) ] where x is the sum of all (16) floretion basis vectors.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (-2,6,27).

Formula

a(n+3) = -2a(n+2) + 6a(n+1) + 27a(n), a(0) = 9, a(1) = 9, a(2) = 36

a(n) = 9*A103644(n).

4*3^(n+1) = 2*A103644(n) + a(n) + A103645(n) = 11*A103644(n) + A103645(n).

a(n) = A110523(n+2)^2. - R. J. Mathar, Sep 11 2019
