%C Literally the same as A013655(n+1), since A001060(-1) = A013655(0) = 3. - _Eric W. Weisstein_, Jun 30 2017

%C Used by the Sofia Gubaidulina and other composers. - _Ian Stewart_, Jun 07 2012

%C From a(2) on, sums of five consecutive Fibonacci numbers; the subset of primes is essentially in A153892. - _R. J. Mathar_, Mar 24 2010

%C Pisano period lengths: 1, 3, 8, 6, 20, 24, 16, 12, 24, 60, 10, 24, 28, 48, 40, 24, 36, 24, 18, 60, ... (is this A001175?). - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 10 2012

%C Also the number of independent vertex sets and vertex covers in the (n+1)-pan graph. - _Eric W. Weisstein_, Jun 30 2017

%C From _Wajdi Maaloul_, Jun 10 2022: (Start)

%C For n > 0, a(n) is the number of ways to tile the figure below with squares and dominoes (a strip of length n+1 that contains a vertical strip of height 3 in its second tile). For instance, a(4) is the number of ways to tile this figure (of length 5) with squares and dominoes.

%F a(n) = 2*Fibonacci(n) + Fibonacci(n+3). - _Zerinvary Lajos_, Oct 05 2007

%F a(n) = Fibonacci(n+4) - Fibonacci(n-1) for n >= 1. - _Ian Stewart_, Jun 07 2012

%F a(n) = Fibonacci(n) + 2*Fibonacci(n+2) = 5*Fibonacci(n) + 2*Fibonacci(n-1). The ratio r(n) := a(n+2)/a(n) satisfies the recurrence r(n+1) = (2*r(n) - 1)/(r(n) - 1). If M denotes the 2 X 2 matrix [2, -1; 1, -1] then [a(n+2), a(n)] = M^n[2, -1]. - _Peter Bala_, Dec 06 2013

%F a(n) = 6*F(n) + F(n-3), for F(n)=A000045. - _J. M. Bergot_, Jul 14 2017

%F a(n) = -(-1)^n*A000285(-2-n) = -(-1)^n*A104449(-1-n) for all n in Z. - _Michael Somos_, Oct 28 2018
