G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..695

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (40,-390,1080,-729).

Formula

a(n) = (3^n - 1)*(3^n + 1)^2/32.

From G. C. Greubel, May 22 2023: (Start)

a(n) = A002452(n)*A007051(n)/2.

a(n) = A003462(n)*A051500(n)/4.

G.f.: x*(1 -15*x +27*x^2)/((1-x)*(1-3*x)*(1-9*x)*(1-27*x)).

E.g.f.: (1/32)*(- exp(x) - exp(3*x) + exp(9*x) + exp(27*x)). (End)
