Andrew Howroyd, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000

Eric Weisstein's World of Mathematics, Complete Bipartite Graph

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (5,-8,4).

FORMULA

a(n) = 2*A000225(n-1) + A001787(n).

a(n) = (2 + n)*2^(n-1) - 2.

From Colin Barker, Nov 05 2019: (Start)

G.f.: x*(1 + x - 4*x^2) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)^2).

a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 8*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3) for n>3.

(End)

PROG

(PARI) a(n) = {(2 + n)*2^(n-1) - 2}

(PARI) Vec(x*(1 + x - 4*x^2) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)^2) + O(x^30)) \\ Colin Barker, Nov 05 2019
