FORMULA

G.f.: 1 / (1 + 4 * x + 8 * x^2). E.g.f: (cos(2 * x) - sin(2 * x)) / exp(2 * x).

a(n) = -4 * a(n-1) - 8 * a(n-2). a(n+4) = -64 * a(n).

EXAMPLE

1 - 4*x + 8*x^2 - 64*x^4 + 256*x^5 - 512*x^6 + 4096*x^8 - 16384*x^9 + ...

PROGRAM

(PARI) {a(n) = (-64)^(n \ 4) * [1, -4, 8, 0][n%4 + 1]}

(PARI) {a(n) = n--; -2 * 2^n * ((-1 + I)^n + (-1 - I)^n)}

(PARI) {a(n) = n--; simplify( -4 * (2 * quadgen(8))^n * polchebyshev(n, 1, -1 / quadgen(8)))}

CROSSREFS

A030210(2^n) = 2^n * A108520(n) = a(n).
