COMMENTS
| a(n-4)=number of necklaces with 4 black beads and n-4 white beads.
Also nonnegative integer 2 X 2 matrices with sum of elements equal to n, up to rotational symmetry.
The g.f. is Z(C_4,x), the 4-variate cycle index polynomial for the cyclic group C_4, with substitution x[i]->1/(1-x^i), i=1,...,4. Therefore by Polya enumeration a(n) is the number of cyclically inequivalent 4-necklaces whose 4 beads are labeled with nonnegative integers such that the sum of labels is n, for n=0,1,2,... See A102190 for Z(C_4,x). W. Lang (wolfdieter.lang_AT_physik_DOT_uni-karlsruhe_DOT_de), Feb 15 2005.

FORMULA
| G.f.: (1+2*x^3+x^4)/((1-x)*(1-x^2)^2*(1-x^4)) = (1-x+x^2+x^3)/((1-x)^2*(1-x^2)*(1-x^4)).

EXAMPLE
| There are 10 inequivalent nonnegative integer 2 X 2 matrices with sum of elements equal to 4, up to rotational symmetry:
[0 0] [0 0] [0 0] [0 0] [0 1] [0 1] [0 1] [0 2] [0 2] [1 1]
[0 4] [1 3] [2 2] [3 1] [1 2] [2 1] [3 0] [1 1] [2 0] [1 1].
