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.

A162889 Number of reduced words of length n in Coxeter group on 46 generators S_i with relations (S_i)^2 = (S_i S_j)^3 = I.

The initial terms coincide with those of A170765, although the two sequences are eventually different.
Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.

Formula

G.f.: (t^3 + 2*t^2 + 2*t + 1)/(990*t^3 - 44*t^2 - 44*t + 1).
From G. C. Greubel, Apr 28 2019: (Start)
a(n) = 44*a(n-1) + 44*a(n-2) - 990*a(n-3).
G.f.: (1+x)*(1-x^3)/(1 - 45*x + 1034*x^3 - 990*x^4). (End)
