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

This is the limit sequence for certain generalized Pell numbers. - Gregory L. Simay, Oct 21 2024

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.
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - a(n-2) with a(0) = 1, a(1) = 2.
a(n) = Fibonacci(2n+1) = A000045(2n+1). - Philippe Deléham, Feb 11 2009
a(n) = (2^(-1-n)*((3-sqrt(5))^n*(-1+sqrt(5)) + (1+sqrt(5))*(3+sqrt(5))^n)) / sqrt(5). - Colin Barker, Oct 14 2015
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} Sum_{i=0..n} binomial(k+i-1, k-i). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Sep 21 2017
a(n) = A048575(n-1) for n >= 1. - Georg Fischer, Nov 02 2018
a(n) = Fibonacci(n)^2 + Fibonacci(n+1)^2. - Michel Marcus, Mar 18 2019
a(n) = Product_{k=1..n} (1 + 4*cos(2*k*Pi/(2*n+1))^2). - Seiichi Manyama, Apr 30 2021
From J. M. Bergot, May 27 2022: (Start)
a(n) = (L(n)^2 + L(n)*L(n+2))/5 - (-1)^n.
a(n) = 2*(area of a triangle with vertices at (L(n-1), L(n)), (F(n+1), F(n)), (L(n+1), L(n+2))) - 5*(-1)^n for n > 1. (End)
G.f.: (1-x)/(1-3x+x^2) = 1/(1-2x-x^2-x^3-x^4-...) - Gregory L. Simay, Oct 21 2024
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.
EXAMPLE
a(1) = 2 because x1-x2, x1-x3 are both of degree 1 and are killed by the differential operator d_x1 + d_x2 + d_x3.
a(2) = 5 because x1*x2 - x3*x2, x1*x3 - x2*x3, x2*x1 - x3*x1, x1*x1 - x2*x1 - x2*x2 + x1*x2, x1*x1 - x3*x1 - x3*x3 + x3*x1 are all linearly independent and are killed by d_x1 + d_x2 + d_x3, d_x1 d_x1 + d_x2 d_x2 + d_x3 d_x3 and Sum_{j = 1..3} (d_xi d_xj, i).
