The k-Fibonacci sequences for k=2..12 are A000129, A006190, A001076, A052918, A005668, A054413, A041025, A099371, A041041, A049666, A041061. This here is k=13. k=14 is A041085, k=16 A041113, k=18 A041145, k=20 A041181, k=22 A041221.
For n>=2, a(n) equals the permanent of the (n-1) X (n-1) tridiagonal matrix with 13's along the main diagonal and 1's along the superdiagonal and the subdiagonal. - John M. Campbell, Jul 08 2011
For n>=1, a(n) equals the number of words of length n-1 on alphabet {0,1,...,13} avoiding runs of zeros of odd length. - Milan Janjic, Jan 28 2015
Also called the 13-metallonacci sequence; the g.f. 1/(1-k*x-x^2) gives the k-metallonacci sequence.
a(n+1) is the number of tilings of an n-board (a board with dimensions n X 1) using unit squares and dominoes (with dimensions 2 X 1) if there are 13 kinds of squares available. (End)

FORMULA

O.g.f.: x/(1-13*x-x^2).
a(n) = 13*a(n-1) + a(n-2).
a(n-r)*a(n+r) - a(n)^2 = (-1)^(n+1-r)*a(r)^2.
a(n) = Sum_{i=0..floor((n-1)/2)} binomial(n,2i+1)*13^(n-1-2*i)*(13^2+4)^i/2^(n-1).
a(n) = ((13+sqrt(173))^n - (13-sqrt(173))^n)/(2^n*sqrt(173)). - Al Hakanson (hawkuu(AT)gmail.com), Jan 12 2009
