concat(0,Vec((3+6*x)/(1-21*x^2-7*x^3)+O(x^99))) \\ Charles R Greathouse IV, Oct 01 2012
Formula
a(n) = (1/7)*((c(1)-c(4))*(1+3*c(1))^n + (c(2)-c(1))*(1+3*c(2))^n + (c(4)-c(2))*(1+3*c(4))^n), where c(j):=2*cos(2*Pi*j/7) (for the proof see Witula-Slota-Warzynski paper).
G.f.: (3*x+6*x^2)/(1-21*x^2-7*x^3).
