Comments

Diagonal sums of Riordan array ((1-x)/(1+x),x/(1+x)^2), A110162.

The positive sequence with g.f. (1-x^2)/(1-2x) gives the row sums of the Riordan array (1+x,x/(1-x)). - Paul Barry, Jul 18 2005

The inverse g.f. is (1 + 2*x + x^2 + 2*x^3 + x^4 + 2*x^5 + x^6 + ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Jan 07 2011

In absolute value, essentially the same as A007283(n) = A003945(n+1) = A042950(n+1) = A082505(n+1) = A087009(n+3) = A091629(n) = A098011(n+4) = A111286(n+2). - M. F. Hasler, Apr 19 2015

Formula

a(n) = 3*(-2)^(n-2) = 3*A122803(n-2) for n >= 2. a(n) = -2 a(n-1) for n >= 3. - M. F. Hasler, Apr 19 2015
