COMMENTS
The titular polynomials are defined recursively: p(n,x) = x*p(n-1,x) +- 1 + n^2, with p(0,x)=1. For an introduction to reductions of polynomials by substitutions such as x^2 -> x+1, see A192232 and A192744.

FORMULA
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) - a(n-3) + a(n-4).
From R. J. Mathar, May 09 2014: (Start)
G.f.: (1 -3*x +6*x^2 -2*x^3)/((1-x-x^2)*(1-x)^2).
a(n) -2*a(n+1) +a(n+2) = A022096(n-3). (End)
a(n) = Fibonacci(n+3) + 4*Fibonacci(n+1) - (2*n+5). - G. C. Greubel, Jul 12 2019
