Essentially identical to A001519.
From Matthew Lehman, Jun 14 2008: (Start)
Number of monotonic rhythms using n time intervals of equal duration (starting with n=0).
Representationally, let 0 be an interval which is "off" (rest),
1 an interval which is "on" (beep),
1 1 two consecutive "on" intervals (beep, beep),
1 0 1 (beep, rest, beep) and
1-1 two connected consecutive "on" intervals (beeeep).
For f(3)=13:
0 0 0, 0 0 1, 0 1 0, 0 1 1, 0 1-1, 1 0 0, 1 0 1,
1 1 0, 1-1 0, 1 1 1, 1 1-1, 1-1 1, 1-1-1.
(End)
Equivalent to the number of one-dimensional graphs of n nodes, subject to the condition that a node is either 'on' or 'off' and that any two neighboring 'on' nodes can be connected. - Matthew Lehman, Nov 22 2008

Formula

G.f.: (1-q)/(1-3*q+q^2). More generally, (Sum_{d=0..n} (n!/(n-d)!*q^d)/Product_{r=1..d} (1 - r*q)) / (Sum_{d=0..n} q^d/Product_{r=1..d} (1 - r*q)) where n=3.

E.g.f.: exp(3*x/2)*(5*cosh(sqrt(5)*x/2) + sqrt(5)*sinh(sqrt(5)*x/2))/5. - Stefano Spezia, Nov 07 2024
From Peter Bala, May 04 2025: (Start)
a(n) = sqrt(2/5) * sqrt( 1 - T(2*n+1, - 3/2) ), where T(k, x) denotes the k-th Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.
a(2*n+1/2) = sqrt(5)*a(n)^2 - 2/sqrt(5).
a(3*n+1) = 5*a(n)^3 - 3*a(n); hence a(n) divides a(3*n+1).
a(4*n+3/2) = 5^(3/2)*a(n)^4 - 4*sqrt(5)*a(n)^2 + 2/sqrt(5).
a(5*n+2) = (5^2)*a(n)^5 - 5*5*a(n)^3 + 5*a(n); hence a(n) divides a(5*n+2).
See A034807 for the unsigned coefficients [1, 2; 1, 3; 1, 4, 2; 1, 5, 5; ...].
In general, for k >= 0, a(k*n + (k-1)/2) = a(-1/2) * T(k, a(n)/a(-1/2)), where a(n) = (2^(-1-n)*((3 - sqrt(5))^n *(-1 + sqrt(5)) + (1 + sqrt(5))*(3 + sqrt(5))^n)) / sqrt(5), as given above, and a(-1/2) = 2/sqrt(5).
The aerated sequence [b(n)]n>=1 = [1, 0, 2, 0, 5, 0, 13, 0, ...] is a fourth-order linear divisibility sequence; that is, if n | m then b(n) | b(m). It is the case P1 = 0, P2 = -5, Q = 1 of the 3-parameter family of divisibility sequences found by Williams and Guy.
Sum_{n >= 1} 1/(a(n) - 1/a(n)) = 1 (telescoping series: for n >= 1, 1/(a(n) - 1/a(n)) = 1/A001906(n) - 1/A001906(n+1).) (End)

The previous comment could be rephrased as: a(n) = -det(A^n - I) where I is the 2 X 2 identity matrix and A = [1, 1; 1, 2]. - Peter Bala, Mar 20 2015
a(n) is also the number of points of Arnold's "cat map" that are on orbits of period n-1. This is a map of the two-torus T^2 into itself. If we regard T^2 as R^2 / Z^2, the action of this map on a two vector in R^2 is multiplication by the unit-determinant matrix A = [2, 1;1, 1], with the vector components taken modulo one. As such, an explicit formula for the n-th entry of this sequence is -det(I-A^n). - Bruce Boghosian, Apr 26 2009

Rows of A013610 reversed. - Michael Somos, Feb 14 2002
Row sums are powers of 4 (A000302), antidiagonal sums are A006190 (a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + a(n-2)). - Gerald McGarvey, May 17 2005

Also: Pure Galton board of scheme (3,1). Also: Multiplicity (number) of pairs of n-dimensional binary vectors with dot product (overlap) k. There are 2^n = A000079(n) binary vectors of length n and 2^(2n) = 4^n = A000302(n) different pairs to form dot products k = Sum_{i=1..n} v[i]*u[i] between these, 0 <= k <= n.

T(i,j) is the number of i-permutations of 4 objects a,b,c,d, with repetition allowed, containing j a's. - Zerinvary Lajos, Dec 21 2007
The antidiagonals of the sequence formatted as a square array (see Examples section) and summed with alternating signs gives a bisection of Fibonacci sequence, A001906. Example: 81-(27-1)=55. Similar rule applied to rows gives A000079. - Mark Dols, Sep 01 2009

T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*3^(n-k), the number of subsets of [2n] with exactly k symmetric pairs, where elements i and j of [2n] form a symmetric pair if i+j=2n+1. Equivalently, if n couples attend a (ticketed) event that offers door prizes, then the number of possible prize distributions that have exactly k couples as dual winners is T(n,k). - Dennis P. Walsh, Feb 02 2012
T(n,k) is the number of ordered pairs (A,B) of subsets of {1,2,...,n} such that the intersection of A and B contains exactly k elements. For example, T(2,1) = 6 because we have ({1},{1}); ({1},{1,2}); ({2},{2}); ({2},{1,2}); ({1,2},{1}); ({1,2},{2}). Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k)*k = A002697(n) (see comment there by Ross La Haye). - Geoffrey Critzer, Sep 04 2013
Also the convolution triangle of A000244. - Peter Luschny, Oct 09 2022

Examples

			Example: n = 3 offers 2^3 = 8 different binary vectors (0,0,0), (0,0,1), ..., (1,1,0), (1,1,1). a(3,2) = 9 of the 2^4 = 64 pairs have overlap k = 2: (0,1,1)*(0,1,1) = (1,0,1)*(1,0,1) = (1,1,0)*(1,1,0) = (1,1,1)*(1,1,0) = (1,1,1)*(1,0,1) = (1,1,1)*(0,1,1) = (0,1,1)*(1,1,1) = (1,0,1)*(1,1,1) = (1,1,0)*(1,1,1) = 2.
For example, T(2,1)=6 since there are 6 subsets of {1,2,3,4} that have exactly 1 symmetric pair, namely, {1,4}, {2,3}, {1,2,3}, {1,2,4}, {1,3,4}, and {2,3,4}.

Apart from signs, identical to A078812.
Another version with row-leading 0's and differing signs is given by A285072.
G.f. for row polynomials S(n,x-2) (signed triangle): 1/(1+(2-x)*z+z^2). Unsigned triangle |a(n,m)| has g.f. 1/(1-(2+x)*z+z^2) for row polynomials.
Row sums (signed triangle) A049347(n) (periodic(1,-1,0)). Row sums (unsigned triangle) A001906(n+1)=F(2*(n+1)) (even-indexed Fibonacci).
In the language of Shapiro et al. (see A053121 for the reference) such a lower triangular (ordinary) convolution array, considered as a matrix, belongs to the Bell-subgroup of the Riordan-group.
The (unsigned) column sequences are A000027, A000292, A000389, A000580, A000582, A001288 for m=0..5, resp. For m=6..23 they are A010966..(+2)..A011000 and for m=24..49 they are A017713..(+2)..A017763.
Riordan array (1/(1+x)^2,x/(1+x)^2). Inverse array is A039598. Diagonal sums have g.f. 1/(1+x^2). - Paul Barry, Mar 17 2005. Corrected by Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 13 2012.
Unsigned version is in A078812. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 05 2006
Also row n gives (except for an overall sign) coefficients of characteristic polynomial of the Cartan matrix for the root system A_n. - Roger L. Bagula, May 23 2007
From Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 13 2012: (Start)
The A-sequence for this Riordan triangle is A115141, and the Z-sequence is A115141(n+1), n>=0. For A- and Z-sequences for Riordan matrices see the W. Lang link under A006232 with details and references.
S(n,x^2-2) = sum(r(j,x^2),j=0..n) with Chebyshev's S-polynomials and r(j,x^2) := R(2*j+1,x)/x, where R(n,x) are the monic integer Chebyshv T-polynomials with coefficients given in A127672. Proof from comparing the o.g.f. of the partial sum of the r(j,x^2) polynomials (see a comment on the signed Riordan triangle A111125) with the present Riordan type o.g.f. for the row polynomials with x -> x^2. (End)
S(n,x^2-2) = S(2*n+1,x)/x, n >= 0, from the odd part of the bisection of the o.g.f. - Wolfdieter Lang, Dec 17 2012
For a relation to a generator for the Narayana numbers A001263, see A119900, whose columns are unsigned shifted rows (or antidiagonals) of this array, referring to the tables in the example sections. - Tom Copeland, Oct 29 2014
The unsigned rows of this array are alternating rows of a mirrored A011973 and alternating shifted rows of A030528 for the Fibonacci polynomials. - Tom Copeland, Nov 04 2014
Boas-Buck type recurrence for column k >= 0 (see Aug 10 2017 comment in A046521 with references): a(n, m) = (2*(m + 1)/(n - m))*Sum_{k = m..n-1} (-1)^(n-k)*a(k, m), with input a(n, n) = 1, and a(n,k) = 0 for n < k. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jun 03 2020
Row n gives the characteristic polynomial of the (n X n)-matrix M where M[i,j] = 2 if i = j, -1 if |i-j| = 1 and 0 otherwise. The matrix M is positive definite and has 2-condition number (cot(Pi/(2*n+2)))^2. - Jianing Song, Jun 21 2022
Also the convolution triangle of (-1)^(n+1)*n. - Peter Luschny, Oct 07 2022

For the difference equation a(n) = c*a(n-1) - d*a(n-2), with a(0) = 0, a(1) = 1, the solution is a(n) = d^((n-1)/2) * ChebyshevU(n-1, c/(2*sqrt(d))) and has the alternate form a(n) = ( ((c + sqrt(c^2 - 4*d))/2)^n - ((c - sqrt(c^2 - 4*d))/2)^n )/sqrt(c^2 - 4*d). In the case c^2 = 4*d then the solution is a(n) = n*d^((n-1)/2). The generating function is x/(1 - c*x + d^2) and the exponential generating function takes the form (2/sqrt(c^2 - 4*d))*exp(c*x/2)*sinh(sqrt(c^2 - 4*d)*x/2) for c^2 > 4*d, (2/sqrt(4*d - c^2))*exp(c*x/2)*sin(sqrt(4*d - c^2)*x/2) for 4*d > c^2, and x*exp(sqrt(d)*x) if c^2 = 4*d. - G.

Formula

From Peter Bala, Aug 17 2007: (Start)
With an offset of 0, the row polynomials F(n,x) = Sum_{k = 0..n} C(n,k)* Fibonacci(n-k)*x^k satisfy F(n,x)*L(n,x) = F(2*n,x), where L(n,x) = Sum_{k = 0..n} C(n,k)*Lucas(n-k)*x^k.
Other identities and formulas include:
F(n+1,x)^2 - F(n,x)*F(n+2,x) = (x^2 + x - 1)^n;
Sum_{k = 0..n} C(n,k)*F(n-k,x)*L(k,x) = (2^n)*F(n,x);
F(n,2*x) = Sum_{k = 0..n} C(n,k)*F(n-k,x)*x^k;
F(n,3*x) = Sum_{k = 0..n} C(n,k)*F(n-k,2*x)*x^k, etc.
The sequence {F(n,r)}n>=1 gives the r-th binomial transform of the Fibonacci numbers: r = 1 gives A001906, r = 2 gives A030191, r = 3 gives A099453, r = 4 gives A081574, r = 5 gives A081575.
F(n,1/phi) = (-1)^(n-1)*F(n,-phi) = sqrt(5)^(n-1) for n >= 1, where phi = (1 + sqrt(5))/2.
The polynomials F(n,-x) satisfy a Riemann hypothesis: the zeros of F(n,-x) lie on the vertical line Re x = 1/2 in the complex plane.
G.f.: t/(1 - (2*x + 1)*t + (x^2 + x - 1)*t^2) = t + (1 + 2*x)*t^2 + (2 + 3*x + 3*x^2)*t^3 + (3 + 8*x + 6*x^2 + 4*x^3)*t^4 + ... . (End)
From Peter Bala, Jun 29 2016: (Start)
Working with an offset of 0, the n-th row polynomial F(n,x) = 1/sqrt(5)*( (x + phi)^n - (x - 1/phi)^n ), where phi = (1 + sqrt(5))/2.
d/dx(F(n,x)) = n*F(n-1,x).
F(-n,x) = -F(n,x)/(x^2 + x - 1)^n.
F(n,x - 1) = (-1)^(n-1)*F(n,-x).
F(n,x) is a divisibility sequence of polynomials, that is, if n divides m then F(n,x) divides F(m,x) in the polynomial ring Z[x]. (End)
From G. C. Greubel, Oct 30 2019: (Start)
Sum_{k = 1..n} T(n,k) = Fibonacci(2*n).
Sum_{k = 1..n} (-1)^k * T(n,k) = (-1)^n * Fibonacci(n). (End)
From Clark Kimberling, Oct 30 2019: (Start)
F(n,x) is a strong divisibility sequence of polynomials in Z[x]; that is,
gcd(F(x,h),F(x,k)) = F(x,gcd(h,k)) for h,k >= 1. Thus, if x is an integer, then F(n,x) is a strong divisibility sequence of integers; e.g., for x=3, we have A099453. (End)
Let p(n) denote the polynomial F(x,n). Then p(n) = k(b^n - c^n), where k = -1/sqrt(5), b = (1/2)(2x + 1 - sqrt(5)), c = (1/2)(2x + 1 + sqrt(5)), and for n >=3, p(n) = u*p(n - 1) + v*p(n - 2), where u = 1 + 2 x, v = 1 - x - x^2. - Clark Kimberling, Nov 11 2023

Divisibility sequence; that is, if n divides m, then a(n) divides a(m).
In general, cubing the terms of a Horadam sequence with signature (c,d) will result in a fourth-order recurrence with signature (c^3+2*c*d, c^4*d+3*(c*d)^2+2*d^3, -(c*d)^3-2*c*d^4, -d^6). - Gary Detlefs, Nov 12 2021
a(n+1) is the number of tilings of an n-board (a board with dimensions n X 1) using (1/3,2/3)-fences and third-squares (1/3 X 1 pieces, always placed so that the shorter sides are horizontal). A (w,g)-fence is a tile composed of two w X 1 pieces separated by a gap of width g. a(n+1) also equals the number of tilings of an n-board using (1/6,1/3)-fences and (1/6,5/6)-fences. - Michael A. Allen, Jan 11 2022

Examples

			a(4) = 27 because the fourth Fibonacci number is 3 and 3^3 = 27.
a(5) = 125 because the fifth Fibonacci number is 5 and 5^3 = 125.

The standard order of compositions is given by A066099.
A composition of n is a finite sequence of positive integers summing to n. The k-th composition in standard order (row k of A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. - Gus Wiseman, Apr 03 2020

			Composition number 11 is 2,1,1; 2*1*1 = 2, so a(11) = 2.

Some conjectures:
a(2n+1) = a(n) for n >= 0.
a(2n) = (1 + 1/A001511(n))*a(n) = 2*a(n) + a(n - 2^f(n)) - a(2n - 2^f(n)) for n > 0 with a(0)=1 where f(n) = A007814(n).
From the 1st formula for a(2n) we get a(4n+2) = 2*a(n), a(4n) = 2*a(2n) - a(n).
Sum_{k=0..2^n - 1} a(k) = A001519(n+1) for n >= 0.
a((4^n - 1)/3) = A011782(n) for n >= 0.
