%F From _Vladimir Reshetnikov_, Nov 05 2015: (Start)

%F a(n) = (8*A000045(n) + 3*(-1)^n - 9 + cos(Pi*n/2)*(6 - 4*sin(Pi*n/4)) + 4*sqrt(2)*sin(Pi*n/4)*sin(Pi*n/2))/24.

%F E.g.f.: (cos(x)-cosh(x)-2*sinh(x))/4 + (sqrt(2)*cos(x/sqrt(2))+sin(x/sqrt(2))) *sinh(x/sqrt(2))/6 + 2*exp(x/2)*sinh(x*sqrt(5)/2))/( 3*sqrt(5)). (End)

%F The sequence b(n) = a(n+2) - a(n+1) - a(n) has period 8 and always 0 or 1. - _Michael Somos_, Nov 06 2015
