Python

def a(n):
 if n in [0,1,2,3,4,5,6]:
  return [1, 11, 101, 929, 8545, 78599, 722973][n]
 return 11*a(n-1) - 14*a(n-2) - 28*a(n-3) + 39*a(n-4) + 9*a(n-5) - 10*a(n-6)

Formula

For n>6, a(n) = 11*a(n-1) - 14*a(n-2) - 28*a(n-3) + 39*a(n-4) + 9*a(n-5) - 10*a(n-6), a(0)=1, a(1)=11, a(2)=101, a(3)=929, a(4)=8545, a(5)=78599, a(6)=722973.

G.f.: (1 - 6*x^2 + 9*x^4 - 2*x^6)/(1 - 11*x + 14*x^2 + 28*x^3 - 39*x^4 - 9*x^5 + 10*x^6).
