%N P_4(2n+1), the Legendre polynomial of order 4 at 2n+1.

%C Legendre polynomial LP_4(x) = (35*x^4 - 30*x^2 + 3)/8. - _Klaus Brockhaus_, Nov 21 2009

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_05">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (5,-10,10,-5,1).

%F From _Klaus Brockhaus_, Nov 21 2009: (Start)

%F a(n) = 70*n^4 + 140*n^3 + 90*n^2 + 20*n + 1.

%F a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3) - a(n-4) + 1680 for n > 3; a(0)=1, a(1)=321, a(2)=2641, a(3)=10321.

%F G.f.: (1 + 316*x + 1046*x^2 + 316*x^3 + x^4)/(1-x)^5. (End)
