COMMENT

Binomial transform of expansion of cosh(sqrt(8)x) (A001018 with interpolated zeros : 1, 0, 8, 0, 64, 0, 512, 0, ...); inverse binomial transform of A084128.

The same sequence may be obtained by the following process. Starting a priori with the fraction 1/1, the numerators of fractions built according to the rule: add top and bottom to get the new bottom, add top and 8 times the bottom to get the new top. The limit of the sequence of fractions is sqrt(8). - Cino Hilliard (hillcino368(AT)gmail.com), Sep 25 2005

FORMULA

a(n)=(1+sqrt(8))^n/2+(1-sqrt(8))^n/2; G.f.: (1-x)/(1-2x-7x^2); E.g.f.: exp(x)cosh(sqrt(8)x).

a(n)=Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n}A098158(n,k)*8^(n-k). - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Dec 26 2007
