FORMULA
|
G.f.: (1-16*x-18*x^2-13*x^3+10*x^4) / (1-28*x-195*x^2+497*x^3-30*x^4+79*x^5-66*x^6)
Recurrence 1:
a(n) = 12*a(n-1) + 4*b(n-1) + 2*c(n-1) + d(n-1) + e(n-1) + 43*a(n-2) + 8*b(n-2) + c(n-2) + 2*d(n-2)
b(n) = 32*a(n-1) + 9*b(n-1) + 4*c(n-1) + 2*d(n-1) + e(n-1)
c(n) = 60*a(n-1) + 16*b(n-1) + 6*c(n-1) + 4*d(n-1) + 2*e(n-1)
d(n) = 14*a(n-1) + 3*b(n-1) + d(n-1)
e(n) = 64*a(n-1) + 13*b(n-1) + 2*c(n-1) + 2*d(n-1)
with a(n),b(n),c(n),d(n),e(n)= 0 for n<=0 except for a(0)=1.
Recurrence 2:
a(n)=28*a(n-1) + 195*a(n-2) - 497*a(n-3) + 30*a(n-4) - 79*a(n-5) + 66*a(n-6)
for n>=6. For n<6, recurrence 1 can be used.
