COMMENT

A modified Pellian sequence.

FORMULA

a(n)/a(n-1) tends to 1 + sqrt(2) = 2.414213562...(a(14)/a(13) = 430433/178287 = 2.4142702...).

(1/2) [Pell(n+1) + 2*Pell(n) - n - 2 ], with Pell(n) = A000129(n). - Ralf Stephan, May 15 2007

a(n)=4*a(n-1)-4*a(n-2)+a(n-4). G.f.: -(1-x+x^2)/((x^2+2*x-1)*(x-1)^2). [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Aug 05 2009]

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 61 = 2*(a(3)) + a(2) + 4 = 2*24 + 9 + 4.

a(4) = 61 = sum of terms in row 5 of A117584: 1 + 5 + 9 + 17 + 29.

CROSSREFS

Row sums of triangle A117584.
