As n increases, this sequence is approximately geometric with common ratio r = lim_{n->infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = (2 + sqrt(5))^4 = 161 + 72*sqrt(5). - Ant King, Dec 26 2011

FORMULA

G.f.: -x*(1 - 102*x + 5*x^2) / ( (x-1)*(x^2 - 322*x + 1) ). - R. J. Mathar, Dec 21 2011
a(n) = 322*a(n-1) - a(n-2) - 96.
a(n) = (1/20)*((sqrt(5)+1)*(sqrt(5)+2)^(4*n-3) + (sqrt(5)-1)*(sqrt(5)-2)^(4*n-3) + 6).
a(n) = ceiling((1/20)*(sqrt(5)+1)*(sqrt(5)+2)^(4*n-3)).
