1, 1, 3, 11, 43, 173,... is the unique sequence for which both the Hankel transform of the sequence itself and the Hankel transform of its left shift are the powers of 2 (A000079). For example, det[{{1, 1, 3}, {1, 3, 11}, {3, 11, 43}}] = det[{{1, 3, 11}, {3, 11, 43}, {11, 43, 173}}] = 4. -David Callan,Mar 30 2007
FromPaul Barry,Jan 25 2009: (Start)
a(n) is the image of F(2n+2) under the Catalan matrix (1,xc(x)) where c(x) is the g.f. ofA000108.
The sequence 1,1,3,... is the image ofA001519under (1,xc(x)). This sequence has g.f. given by 1/(1-x-2x^2/(1-3x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-... (continued fraction). (End)

FromPaul Barry,Nov 03 2010: (Start)
The sequence 1,1,3,... has g.f. 1/(1-x/sqrt(1-4x)), INVERT transform ofA000984.
It is an eigensequence of the sequence array forA000984.(End)
