COMMENT

Part of the phi_k family of sequences defined by a(1)=1,a(2)=...=a(k)=0, a(n)=a(n-k)+a(n-k+1) for n>k. phi_2 is a shift of the Fibonacci sequence, and phi_3 is a shift of the Padovan sequence.

FORMULA

Binet-like formula: a(n)=sum_{i=1...4} (r_i^n)/(3(r_i)^2+4(r_i)) where r_i is a root of x^4=x+1

a(n)=A017817(n-5) for n>=5. O.g.f.: x(x-1)(1+x+x^2)/(x^4+x^3-1). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Mar 06 2008

O.g.f.: x*(x-1)*(x^2+x+1)/(-1+x^3+x^4). a(n)=A017817(n-5). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Apr 09 2008
