FORMULA

O.g.f.: x*(1-x+2*x^2+2*x^4)/((x-1)(2*x-1)(2*x^2+1)). a(n)=3*2^(n-2)-(-1)^[(n+1)/2]*A016116(n+1)/6-4/3, n>1 . - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Apr 25 2008

a(n)=-(2/3)+(2/3)*2^n-[(1/12)*I]*[I*sqrt(2)]^n*sqrt(2)+[(1/12)*I]*sqrt(2)*[ -I*sqrt(2)]^n, with n>=0 and I=sqrt(-1) - Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Jun 09 2008
