%F Empirical g.f. and recurrence: (1-4*x)/(1-7*x+11*x^2). a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 11*a(n-2). - _Colin Barker_, Feb 09 2012

%F Proof of recurrence: if r(n) == (x+3)^n mod (x^2-x-1), then r(n+j) == (x+1)^(n+j) mod (x^2 - x - 1). Now r(n+2) - 7*r(n+1) + 11*r(n) == ((x+3)^2 - 7*(x+3) + 11)*r(n) == 0 mod (x^2-x-1) since ((x+3)^2 - 7*(x+3) + 11 = x^2 - x - 1. - _Robert Israel_, Mar 14 2023

%F a(n) = Sum_{i=0..n} (-1)^i*Fibonacci(i+1)*binomial(n,i)*4^(n-i) (conjecture). - _Rigoberto Florez_, Mar 25 2020
