FORMULA

v(n)=2*(If[n == 0, 0, 2^(n - 1)] + 2); a(n)=If[n == 0, 6, (v[n] + v[n - 1] - 2)].

a(n) = 3*a(n-1)-2*a(n-2), n>4. a(n) = 6+3*2^(n-1) = 6+A007283(n-1), n>1. [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Nov 21 2008]

MATHEMATICA

v[n_] := 2*(If[n == 0, 0, 2^(n - 1)] + 2); Table[v[n], {n, 0, 30}]; Table[If[n == 0, 6, (v[n] + v[n - 1] - 2)], {n, 0, 30}]
