Row 2 of A246479.

Formula

Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 8*a(n-3) + 6*a(n-4) + 6*a(n-5) - 8*a(n-6) + 3*a(n-8) - a(n-9).

Conjectures from Colin Barker, Nov 06 2018: (Start)

G.f.: 2*x*(1 + 4*x + 45*x^2 + 52*x^3 + 191*x^4 + 72*x^5 + 115*x^6) / ((1 - x)^6*(1 + x)^3).

a(n) = 5*n - 11*n^2 + 10*n^3 - 4*n^4 + n^5 for n even.

a(n) = 9 - 10*n - 4*n^2 + 10*n^3 - 4*n^4 + n^5 for n odd.
