Let phi = 1/2*(1 + sqrt(5)) denote the golden ratio and put c = sum {n = 1..inf} 1/2^floor(n*(phi + 2)). The bicimal expansion of the constant c begins 0.001000100100010001001.... The binary digits are the generalized Fibonacci word A221150.
The sequence 2^a(n) for n >= 1 gives the partial quotients, apart from the first, in the simple continued fraction expansion of the constant 1/2*c = 0.06692 72114 83804 90296 ... = 1/(14 + 1/(2^0 + 1/(2^4 + 1/(2^3 + 1/(2^8 + 1/(2^10 + 1/(2^19 + ...))))))). Cf. A008346. - Peter Bala, Nov 06 2013

G.f.: (3-2*x^2)/((1+x)*(1-x-x^2)).
a(0) = 3, a(1) = 0, a(2) = 4 and a(n) = 2*a(n-2) + a(n-3) for n >= 3. - Peter Bala, Nov 06 2013
a(n) = ((-1)^n+(1/2*(1-sqrt(5)))^n+(1/2*(1+sqrt(5)))^n). - Colin Barker, Jun 03 2016
