FORMULA

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - 5*a(n-2), n>3. a(n) = left term in [1,-2; 2,1]^n * [1,1].

O.g.f.: -x*(1+5*x)/(1-2*x+5*x^2). a(n)=-A045873(n)-5*A045873(n-1). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Apr 03 2008

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 79 = 2*a(4) - 5*a(3) = 2*17 - 5*(-9).

a(5) = 79 = left term in [1,-2, 2,1]^5.
