COMMENT

A linear 2nd order recurrence. A Jacobsthal number sequence.

Second binomial transform of A080424. Binomial transform of A053573, with leading zero. Binomial transform is 0,1,9,81,729,....(9^n/9-0^n/9). Second binomial transform is 0,1,11,111,1111,... (A002275: repunits). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Mar 14 2004

Number of walks of length n between any two distinct nodes of the complete graph K_9. Example: a(2)=7 because the walks of length 2 between the nodes A and B of the complete graph ABCDEFGHI are: ACB, ADB, AEB, AFB, AGB, AHB, and AIB. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Apr 01 2004

Unsigned version of A014990 . - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Feb 13 2007
