FORMULA

a(n) = 4*A028859(n-4), for n>3.

G.f.: -(1-3x)/(1-2x-2x^2). a(n) = 3*A002605(n-1) -A002605(n). [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Nov 27 2008]

If p[i]=fibonacci(2i-4) and if A is the Hessenberg matrix of order n defined by: A[i,j]=p[j-i+1], (i<=j), A[i,j]=-1, (i=j+1), and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n-1)= det A. [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), May 08 2010]

MATHEMATICA

(With a different offset) M = {{0, 2}, {1, 2}} v[1] = {0, 1} v[n_] := v[n] = M.v[n - 1] a = Table[Abs[v[n][[1]]], {n, 1, 50}] - Roger L. Bagula (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), May 29 2005
