Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (3,-3,1).

Formula

a(n) = 34*A000217(n).

a(0)=0, a(1)=34, a(2)=102, a(n) = 3*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2)+a(n-3). G.f.: 34*x/(1-x)^3. - Colin Barker, Jan 25 2012

From Amiram Eldar, Feb 22 2023: (Start)

Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 1/17.

Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = (2*log(2) - 1)/17.

Product_{n>=1} (1 - 1/a(n)) = -(17/Pi)*cos(sqrt(21/17)*Pi/2).

Product_{n>=1} (1 + 1/a(n)) = (17/Pi)*cos(sqrt(13/17)*Pi/2). (End)
