%N Expansion of 1 + x/(1 - 2*x - x^3 + x^4).

%C Let A(r,n) count the total number of ordered arrangements of an n+r tiling of r red squares and white tiles of total length n, where the individual tile lengths can range from 1 to n. A(r,0) corresponds to a tiling of r red squares only. Let A_1(r,n) = Sum_{j=0..n} A(r,j). Then the expansion of 1/(1-2*x-x^3+x^4) = A_1(0,n) + A_1(1,n-3) + A_1(2, n-6) + ..., which generates a(n) without the initial 1. - _Gregory L. Simay_, May 24 2018
