This yields a polynomial recurrence: {a(n+1)-5*n^6+6*n^5+15*n^4+20*n^3+15*n^2-6*a(n)+6*n+1, a(0) = 1} that can further be transformed into a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. - _Georg Fischer_, Feb 23 2021 %H A024068 Vincenzo Librandi, <a href="/A024068/b024068.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..200</a> %H A024068 <a href="/index/Rec#order_08">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (13,-63,161,-245,231,-133,43,-6). %F A024068 From _Chai Wah Wu_, Jan 26 2020: (Start) %F A024068 a(n) = 13*a(n-1) - 63*a(n-2) + 161*a(n-3) - 245*a(n-4) + 231*a(n-5) - 133*a(n-6) + 43*a(n-7) - 6*a(n-8) for n > 7. %F A024068 G.f.: (5*x^7 + 348*x^6 + 1734*x^5 + 1545*x^4 + 5*x^3 - 30*x^2 - 8*x + 1)/((x - 1)^7*(6*x - 1)).
