FORMULA

G.f.: (x+10*x^2+x^3)/(1-x)^3.

a(n)= 1 + (sum(12*n)). E.g. a(2)=37 because 1+ 12*0 + 12*1 + 12*2 =37. - Xavier Acloque, Oct 06 2003

a(n) = numerator in B_2(x) = (1/2)x^2 - (1/2)x + 1/12 = Bernoulli polynomial of degree 2. - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), May 30 2005

Binomial transform of [1, 12, 12, 0, 0, 0,...]; Narayana transform (A001263) of [1, 12, 0, 0, 0,...]. - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Dec 29 2007
