FORMULA

a(n)=Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n}A147703(n,k)*7^k . G.f.: (1-2x)/(1-10x+8*x^2).

a(n)=(1/2)*(5+sqrt(17))^n-(3/34)*sqrt(17)*[5-sqrt(17)]^n+(1/2)*[5-sqrt(17)]^n+(3/34)*[5 +sqrt(17)]^n*sqrt(17), with n>=0 [From Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Nov 18 2008]

a(n)= ((17+3*sqrt(17))/34)*(5+sqrt(17))^n + ((17-3*sqrt(17))/34)*(5-sqrt(17))^n [From Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr), Nov 20 2008]
