G.f.: 1/(1-2*x^2-x^3). a(n) = 2a(n-2) + a(n-3).
a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), sum{j=0..n-k, (-1)^(n-k-j)binomial(j, k)}}. Diagonal sums of A059260. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 23 2004
a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), binomial(k, n-2k)2^(3k-n)}; a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), binomial(k, n-2k)2^k(1/2)^(n-2k)}. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Oct 04 2004
G.f. : 1/((1+x)(1-x-x^2); a(n)=sum{k=0..n, binomial(n-k-1, k)}. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Oct 25 2004

EXAMPLE
