Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (8,-21,35,-35,21,-7,1).
FORMULA
a(n) = A005709(7*n-6).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n+6*k,n-1-k).
a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 21*a(n-2) + 35*a(n-3) - 35*a(n-4) + 21*a(n-5) - 7*a(n-6) + a(n-7).
G.f.: x*(1-x)^5/((1-x)^7 - x).
a(n) = n*hypergeom([1-n,(1+n)/6,(2+n)/6, (3+n)/6, (4+n)/6, (5+n)/6, 1+n/6], [2/7, 3/7, 4/7, 5/7, 6/7, 8/7], -6^6/7^7). - Stefano Spezia, Jun 23 2024
