Formula

Empirical: a(n)=2*a(n-1)-a(n-3)-2*a(n-5)+2*a(n-6)+a(n-8)-2*a(n-10)+a(n-11).

Empirical: g.f. -2*x*(20 +3*x -3*x^2 -2*x^3 -9*x^4 +14*x^5 +2*x^6 +7*x^7 -4*x^8 -12*x^9 +7*x^10) / ( (x^2+1) *(1+x+x^2) *(1+x)^2 *(x-1)^5 ). a(n) = 23*n^4/288 +175*n^3/144 +985*n^2/144 +1601*n/96 +25265/1728 -(-1)^n*(3*n/32+27/64) -2*A061347(n+1)/27 -A057077(n+1)/8. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 28 2011
