FORMULA
a(n) = 2*(T(n, 7/2)-(-1)^n)/9, with twice the Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind evaluated at x=7/2: 2*T(n, 7/2) = A056854(n) = ((7+sqrt(45))^n + (7-sqrt(45))^n)/2^n.
a(n) = 7*a(n-1)-a(n-2)+2*(-1)^(n+1), n>=2, a(0)=0, a(1)=1.
a(n) = 6*a(n-1) + 6*a(n-2) - a(n-3), n>=3, a(0)=0, a(1)=1, a(2)=5.
G.f.: x*(1-x)/((1+x)*(1-7*x+x^2)) = x*(1-x)/(1-6*x-6*x^2+x^3) (from the Stephan link, see A092184).
a(n) = (Lucas(4*n) - 2*(-1)^n)/9. - Greg Dresden, Oct 10 2020
