COMMENT

Indices m: 4, 16, 61, 229, 856, 3196, 11929, with recurrence m(i)=5(m(i-1)-m(i-2))+m(i-3).

If first term is omitted, same sequence as A128862. - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Jun 13 2008

FORMULA

a(n)=tr(m)=tr(k)+tr(k+1)+tr(k+2), where tr(k)=k(k+1)/2=A000217(k).

a(n+2)=14*a(n+1)-a(n)-3, a(n+1)=7*a(n)-1.5+0.5*(192*a(n)^2-96*a(n)-15)^0.5. G.f.: f(z)=a(1)*z+a(2)*z^2+...= (10*z-14*z^2+z^3)/((1-z)*(1-14*z+z^2)) - Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr), Oct 06 2007

EXAMPLE

tr(k)=k(k+1)/2=A000217(k): 10=tr(4)=tr(1)+tr(2)+tr(3)=1+3+6,

136=tr(16)=tr(8)+tr(9)+tr(10)=36+45+55,

1891=tr(61)=tr(34)+tr(35)+tr(36)=595+630+666,

26335=tr(229)=tr(131)+tr(132)+tr(133)=8646+8778+8911,

366796=tr(856)=tr(493)+tr(494)+tr(495)=121771+122265+122760.
