COMMENTS

For n>=2, a(n) is equal to the number of functions f:{1,2,...,n}->{1,2,3,4,5,6} such that for fixed, different x_1, x_2 in {1,2,...,n} and fixed y_1, y_2 in {1,2,3,4,5,6} we have f(x_1)<>y_1 and f(x_2)<> y_2. - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Apr 19 2007

a(n) is the number of generalized compositions of n when there are 5*i-1 different types of i, (i=1,2,...). [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Aug 26 2010]

FORMULA

a(n)=25*6^(n-2), a(0)=1, a(1)=4. a(n)=6a(n-1)+[(-1)^n]*binomial(2, 2-n); G.f.(x)=(1-x)^2/(1-6x).

a(n) = Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n} A201780(n,k)*4^k. - DELEHAM Philippe, Dec 05 2011
