COMMENTS
From Michael A. Allen, Dec 17 2023: (Start)
Also called the 56-metallonacci sequence; the g.f. 1/(1-k*x-x^2) gives the k-metallonacci sequence.
a(n) is the number of tilings of an n-board (a board with dimensions n X 1) using unit squares and dominoes (with dimensions 2 X 1) if there are 56 kinds of squares available. (End)

FORMULA
a(n) = F(n, 56), the n-th Fibonacci polynomial evaluated at x=56. - T. D. Noe, Jan 19 2006
From Philippe Deléham, Nov 23 2008: (Start)
a(n) = 56*a(n-1) + a(n-2) for n > 1, a(0)=1, a(1)=56.
G.f.: 1/(1 - 56*x - x^2). (End)
