FORMULA
G.f.: (2-3*x-x^2+x^3)/((1-x^2)*(1-2*x)).
a(n) = a(n-1) + 2*a(n-2) - 1.
a(n) = 2^(n-1) + Sum_{alpha=RootOf(-1+z^2)} alpha^(-n)/2.
From Paul Barry, Sep 18 2003: (Start)
a(n) = (2^n + 1 + (-1)^n + 0^n)/2.
E.g.f.: cosh(x)*(1+exp(x)). (End)
a(2*n + 1) = 4 * a(2*n - 1) for all n in Z. a(2*n + 2) = 3*a(2*n + 1) + 2*a(2*n) if n>0. - Michael Somos, Jun 04 2014
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 2 + x + 3*x^2 + 4*x^3 + 9*x^4 + 16*x^5 + 33*x^6 + 64*x^7 + 129*x^8 + ...
