%N A347838 Positive numbers that are congruent to 2, 5, or 11 modulo 12.
%C A347838 This sequence follows from the first column sequence of the array A347834, namely A047529 ({1,3,7} (mod 8)), as given in the formula below.
%C A347838 Together with A017617, the positive integers congruent to 8 modulo 12, one obtains A016789, the positive integers congruent to 2 modulo 3. See the array A347839.
%H A347838 <a href="/index/Rec#order_04">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (1,0,1,-1).
%F A347838 a(n) = (3*A047529(n) + 1)/2.
%F A347838 Trisection: a(3*k+1) = 2 + 12*k, a(3*k+2) = 5 + 12*k, a(3*k+3) = 11 + 12*k, or with a(3*k) = -1 + 12*k for k >= 0.
%F A347838 O.g.f. with a(0) =-1: G(x) = (-1 + 3*x + 3*x^2 + 7*x^3)/((1 - x)*(1 - x^3)) = -6/(1-x) + 4/(1-x)^2 + (1 + x)/(1 + x + x^2). Note that (1 - x)*(1 - x^3) = (1-x)^2*(1 + x + x^2) = 1 - x - x^3 + x^4.
%F A347838 a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-3) - a(n-4), for n >= 4, given a(n) for 0..3, with a(0) = -1.
%F A347838 a(n) = 2*b(n) + 3*b(n-1) + 6*b(n-2) + b(n-3), with b(n) = floor((n+2)/3) = A002264(n+2).
%F A347838 a(n) = -1 + 3*n + 3*floor(n/3) (from the partial fraction decomposition of G).
%F A347838 E.g.f.: 1 + 2*exp(x)*(2*x - 1) + exp(-x/2)*(3*cos(sqrt(3)*x/2) + sqrt(3)*sin(sqrt(3)*x/2))/3. - _Stefano Spezia_, Dec 08 2021
