Also continued fraction for (sqrt(3)+1)/2 (cf. A040001) and base-3 digital root of n+1 (cf. A007089, A010888). - Henry Bottomley, Jul 05 2001
The sequence 1,-2,-1,2,1,-2,-1,2,... with g.f. (1-2x)/(1+x^2) has a(n) = cos(Pi*n/2)-2*sin(Pi*n/2). - Paul Barry, Oct 18 2004
Hankel transform is [1,-3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,...]. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 29 2007
4/33 = 0.121212... - Eric Desbiaux, Nov 03 2008
Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of order n, defined by: A[1,j]=A[i,i]:=1, A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n-1) = charpoly(A,2). - Milan Janjic, Jan 24 2010
First differences of A032766. - Tom Edgar, Jul 17 2014
Denominator of the harmonic mean of the first n triangular numbers. - Colin Barker, Nov 13 2014
This is the lexicographically earliest sequence of positive integers such that no polynomial of degree d can be fitted to d+2 consecutive terms (equivalently, such that no iterated difference is zero). - Pontus von Brömssen, Dec 26 2021
Number of maximum antichains in the power set of {1,2,...,n} partially ordered by set inclusion. For even n, there is a unique maximum antichain formed by all subsets of size n/2; for odd n, there are two maximum antichains, one formed by all subsets of size (n-1)/2 and the other formed by all subsets of size (n+1)/2. See the David Guichard link below for a proof. - Jianing Song, Jun 19 2022
