FORMULA

a(n)= 3*a(n-2) -4*a(n-3) -4*a(n-4).

a(n)= (-2)^n/32 -9*A077942(n)/32 +10*A077942(n-1)/16 -17*A077942(n-2)/32, n>3 . [Mar 28, 2010]

MATHEMATICA

M = {{0, 1, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 1}, {-4, -4, 3, 0}}; v[1] = {0, 0, 0, 1}; v[n_] := v[n] = M.v[n - 1]; a1 = Table[v[n][[1]], {n, 1, 50}]
