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.

Formula

Euler transform of length 6 sequence [-1, 1, 2, 0, 0, -1].
a(n) = b(2*n + 1) where b() is multiplicative with b(2^e) = 0^e, b(3^e) = -1 if e>0, otherwise b(p^e) = 1.
a(n) = a(-1-n) = a(n+3) = -a(n-1)*a(n-2) for all n in Z.
G.f.: (1 - x + x^2) / (1 - x^3).
G.f.: (1 - x) * (1 - x^6) / ((1 - x^2) * (1 - x^3)^2).
G.f.: 1 / (1 + x / (1 + 2*x^2 / (1 - x / (1 - x / (1 + x))))).
Given g.f. A(x), then x*A(x^2) = Sum_{k>0} (x^k - x^(2*k)) - 2*(x^(3*k) - x^(6*k)).
a(n) = A131561(n+1) for all n in Z.
a(n) = (-1)^n * A130151(n) for all n in Z.
Convolution inverse is A257076.
PSUM transform is A008611.
BINOMIAL transform is A086953.
1 / (1 - a(0)*x / (1 - a(1)*x / (1 - a(2)*x / ...))) is the g.f. of A168505.
From Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jul 02 2016: (Start)
a(n) = (1 + 2*cos(2*n*Pi/3) - 2*sqrt(3)*sin(2*n*Pi/3))/3.
a(n) = 2*sgn((n+2) mod 3) - 1. (End)
E.g.f.: (exp(3*x/2) + 4*sin(Pi/6-sqrt(3)*x/2))*exp(-x/2)/3. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jul 02 2016
