Formula

From Paul Barry, Jul 01 2003: (Start)

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k)*C(k+6, 6).

a(n) = (4*n^6 +96*n^5 +910*n^4 +4320*n^3 +10696*n^2 +12864*n+5715)/5760+(-1)^n/128. (End)

Boas-Buck recurrence: a(n) = (1/n)*Sum_{p=0..n-1} (7 + (-1)^(n-p))*a(p), n >= 1, a(0) = 1. See the Boas-Buck comment in A046521 (here for the unsigned column k = 3 with offset 0).

a(n)+a(n+1) = A000579(n+7). - R. J. Mathar, Jan 06 2021
