COMMENTS
A polynomial derived in Mathematica by Bob Hanlon that is different from that in A000073; the first derivative sequence is different as well. Bob Hanlon's code: Needs["DiscreteMath`RSolve`"]; eqns={a[n]==a[n-1]+a[n-2]+a[n-3], a[0]==0,a[1]==a[2]==1}; Clear[f0,f1,f2,f3]; f0[0]=0;f0[1]=f0[2]=1; f0[n_Integer?Positive]:= f0[n]=f0[n-1]+f0[n-2]+f0[n-3]; f1[n_Integer]=a[n]/. RSolve[eqns,a[n],n][[1]]// ToRadicals//Simplify; (*Note that f1[n] is not restricted to nonnegative values of n.*) (*RSolve can also provide the generating function*) gf[x_]=GeneratingFunction[ eqns,a[n],n,x][[1,1]] -(x/(x^3 + x^2 + x - 1)) f2[n_Integer?NonNegative]:= SeriesCoefficient[ Series[gf[x],{x,0,n}],n];

FORMULA
g[x_] = -(x/(x^3 + x^2 + x - 1)); dg[x_] = D[g[x], {x, 1}]; w[n_] := InverseZTransform[dg[x], x, n] // ToRadicals; a(n) =Abs[w[n]]^2
MATHEMATICA
g[x_] = -(x/(x^3 + x^2 + x - 1)); dg[x_] = D[g[x], {x, 1}]; w[n_] := InverseZTransform[dg[x], x, n] // ToRadicals; Table[Abs[Floor[N[w[n]]]]^2, {n, 1, 25}]
