Table of n, a(n) for n=0..25.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,3,4,-4).

Formula

a(n)=2a(n-1)+3a(n-2)+4a(n-3)-4a(n-4); a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), C(2(n-k), 2k)2^k}.

a(n) ~ (1+sqrt((4*sqrt(2)-1)/31)) * (1+2*sqrt(2)+sqrt(1+4*sqrt(2)))^n/2^(n+2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 24 2013
