COMMENT

1 - 1/9 + 1/45 - 1/189 +...= Pi/(2*sqrt(3))

If X_1,X_2,...,X_n are 3-blocks of a (4n+1)-set X then, for n>=1, a(n) is the number of (n+1)-subsets of X intersecting each X_i, (i=1,2,...,n). - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Nov 23 2007

FORMULA

G.f.: (1+3*x)/(1-3*x)^2 [From Jaume Oliver Lafont (joliverlafont(AT)gmail.com), Mar 07 2009]

Contribution from Klaus Brockhaus (klaus-brockhaus(AT)t-online.de), Sep 23 2009: (Start)

a(n) = 6*a(n-1)-9*a(n-2) for n > 1; a(0) = 1, a(1) = 9.

a(n) = 9*A081038(n-1) for n > 0. (End)

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 189 = 7*(3^3)
