Formula
G.f.: 1/(1-3*x-6*x^2+3*x^3+x^4) = 1/((1+x-x^2)*(1-4*x-x^2)) (see Comments to A055870).
a(n) = A010048(n+3, 3) = fibonomial(n+3, 3).
a(n) = (1/2) * A065563(n).
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) + a(n-2) + ((-1)^n)*F(n+1), n >= 2; a(0)=1, a(1)=3.
a(n) = (F(n+3)^3 - F(n+2)^3 - F(n+1)^3)/6. - Gary Detlefs, Dec 24 2010
a(n-1) = Sum_{k=0..n} F(k+1)*F(k)^2, n >= 1. - Wolfdieter Lang, Aug 01 2012
From Wolfdieter Lang, Aug 09 2012: (Start)
a(n-1)*(-1)^n = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^k*F(k+1)^2*F(k), n >= 1. See the link under A215037, eq. (25).
a(n) = (F(3*(n+2)) + 2*(-1)^n*F(n+2))/10, n >= 0. See the same link, eq. (32). (End)
a(n) = -a(-4-n)*(-1)^n for all n in Z. - Michael Somos, Sep 19 2014
0 = a(n)*(-a(n+1) - a(n+2)) + a(n+1)*(-3*a(n+1) + a(n+2)) for all n in Z. - Michael Somos, Sep 19 2014
O.g.f.: exp( Sum_{n >= 1} L(n)*L(2*n)*x^n/n ), where L(n) = A000032(n) is a Lucas number. Cf. A114525, A256178. - Peter Bala, Mar 18 2015
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = 2 * A079586 - 6. - Amiram Eldar, Oct 04 2020
The formula by Gary Detlefs above is valid for all sequences of the Fibonacci type f(n) = f(n-1) + f(n-2): 3*f(n+2)*f(n+1)*f(n) = f(n+2)^3 - f(n+1)^3 - f(n)^3. - Klaus Purath, Mar 25 2021
a(n) = sqrt(Sum_{j=1..n+1} F(j)^3*F(j+1)^3). See Treeby link. - Michel Marcus, Apr 10 2022
G.f.: exp( Sum_{k>=1} F(4*k)/F(k) * x^k/k ), where F(n) = A000045(n). - Seiichi Manyama, May 07 2025
