COMMENT

In general Cos(2Pi*k*r/m)Cos(2Pi*r/m)^n is the number of walks of length n between two nodes at distance k in the cycle graph C_m. Here we have m=10 and k=5. Herbert

FORMULA

a(n)= 4^n/5*Sum_{r=0..9} (-1)^r*Cos(Pi*r/5)^(2n+1); a(n)=7a(n-1)-13a(n-2)+4a(n-3); G.f.: -2x^2/((-1+4x)(1-3x+x^2))

Recurrence: a(n)=7*a(n-1)-13*a(n-2)+4*a(n-3), where a(1)=2, a(2)=14, a(3)=72; formula a(n)=(8/5)*4^n+2/5*(sqrt(5)-2)*2^n*(3+sqrt(5))^(-n)-2/5*(sqrt(5)+2)*2^n*(3-sqrt(5))^(-n) - Maksym Voznyy (voznyy(AT)mail.ru), Jul 24 2008
