FORMULA

Comment from A. N. W. Hone (A.N.W.Hone(AT)kent.ac.uk): a(n) = \frac{1}{4\sqrt{2}}\cos((2n+1)\pi / 4)+\frac{1}{96}(2n+3)(2n^2+6n-5)+\frac{1}{32}(-1)^n. For proof see the link "Comments on A122046".

a(n)=A057077(n+1)/8+A090294(n-1)/32+(-1)^n/32. - A. N. W. Hone (A.N.W.Hone(AT)kent.ac.uk), Jul 15 2008

a(n)=3a(n-1)-3a(n-2)+a(n-3)+a(n-4)-3a(n-5)+3a(n-6)-a(n-7). - A. N. W. Hone (A.N.W.Hone(AT)kent.ac.uk), Jul 15 2008
