Formula

G.f.: x*(3 + 6*x + 6*x^2 - 8*x^3 - 7*x^4 + x^5 - 4*x^6 + 2*x^7)/((1 - x - x^2)*(1 - x^2 - x^4)^2). - Maksym Voznyy (voznyy(AT)mail.ru), Jul 27 2009

From G. C. Greubel, Jan 17 2022: (Start)

a(2*n) = 6*F(2*n+3) + F(2*n+1) - (n+6)*F(n+3) - (n+1)*F(n+1).

a(2*n+1) = 6*F(2*n+2) + F(2*n) - (n+6)*F(n+2) - (n+1)*F(n), where F(n) = A000045(n). (End)
