Formula

Empirical: a(n) = 90112*n^2 - 1032064*n + 3059590 for n>9.

Conjectures from Colin Barker, Dec 07 2018: (Start)

G.f.: x*(16 + 37*x + 322*x^2 + 2017*x^3 + 9935*x^4 + 32656*x^5 + 60328*x^6 + 54521*x^7 + 15495*x^8 + 4171*x^9 + 676*x^10 + 50*x^11) / (1 - x)^3.

a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3) for n>12.
