cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A049683 a(n) = (Lucas(6*n) - 2)/16.

Formula

a(n) = (-2 + (9 + 4*sqrt(5))^n + (9 - 4*sqrt(5))^n)/16. - Ralf Stephan, Apr 14 2004
a(n) = (T(n, 9) - 1)/8 with Chebyshev's polynomials of the first kind evaluated at x = 9: T(n, 9) = A023039(n). Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 18 2004
G.f.: x*(1 + x)/((1 - x)*(1 - 18*x + x^2)) = x*(1 + x)/(1 - 19*x + 19*x^2 - x^3). (from the Stephan link, see A092184).
exp( Sum_{n >= 1} 16*a(n)*x^n/n ) = 1 + 2*Sum_{n >= 1} Fibonacci(6*n)*x^n. - Peter Bala, Jun 03 2016
a(n) = 19*a(n-1) - 19*a(n-2) + a(n-3) for n>2. - Colin Barker, Jun 03 2016
