COMMENT

Also equals column 0 of the matrix square of triangle A118180, where [A118180^2](n,k) = a(n-k)*(3^k)^(n-k) for n>=k>=0.

FORMULA

G.f.: A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n/(1-3^n*x).

EXAMPLE

A(x) = 1/(1-x) + x/(1-3x) + x^2/(1-9x) + x^3/(1-27x) + ...

= 1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 20*x^3 + 137*x^4 + 1622*x^5 + 33293*x^6 +...

MAPLE

a(n)=sum(k=0, n, (3^k)^(n-k) )
