FORMULA
G.f.: (-1+x)/(-1+x+3*x^3)
Recurrence: {a(1)=0, a(0)=1, a(2)=0, 3*a(n)+a(n+2)-a(n+3)=0}
Sum(-1/85*(2+9*_alpha^2-29*_alpha)*_alpha^(-1-n), _alpha=RootOf(-1+_Z+3*_Z^3))
MAPLE
spec := [S, {S=Sequence(Prod(Union(Z, Z, Z), Sequence(Z), Z, Z))}, unlabeled]: seq(combstruct[count](spec, size=n), n=0..20);
