COMMENT

If we drop 1 and start with 2 this is the reflected (definition A074058) Lucas sequence with a(0)=2, a(1)=-1. G.f.: (2+x)/(1+x-x^2). In this case a(n) is also the trace of A^(-n), where A is the Fibomatrix ((1,1), (1,0)). - Mario Catalani (mario.catalani(AT)unito.it), Aug 17 2002

The positive sequence with g.f. (1+x-2x^2)/(1-x-x^2) gives the diagonal sums of the Riordan array (1+2x,x/(1-x)). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Jul 18 2005

FORMULA

a(n) = (-1)^(n-1) * ((n-1)-st Lucas number), see A000204

O.g.f.: (3*x+1)/(1+x-x^2). - Len Smiley (smiley(AT)math.uaa.alaska.edu), Dec 02 2001

EXAMPLE

a(6) = a(4)-a(5) = -4 - 7 = -11
