(this sequence or A001333) and let y_n = 1,2,5,12,29,70,169,... (A000129). Then {+- x_n +- y_n*sqrt(2) } are the units in the ring of algebraic integers Z[ sqrt(2) ]. %C A078057 Consider a string of n red, blue and green beads (with start and end points distinct and not interchangeable). If one pairing is disallowed, so that a red bead cannot immediately follow a blue bead or vice versa, how many different strings exist of any given length? Answer is a(n). E.g. a(3)=17 because there are 17 strings of length 3: RRR, RRG, RGR, RGG, RGB, GRR, GRG, GGR, GGG, GGB, GBG, GBB, BGR, BGG, BGB, BBG, BBB - Wayne VanWeerthuizen (waynemv(AT)yahoo.com), May 02 2004 %C A078057 The number of Khalimsky-continuous functions with one fixed endpoint. - Shiva Samieinia (shiva(AT)math.su.se), Oct 08 2007 %C A078057 The sequence (-1)^C(n+1,2)*a(n) with g.f.
