COMMENTS

Apparently a(n) = A074872(n+1), a(n) = A056451(n-1) for n > 1.

Binomial transform is A084057 without initial 1, second binomial transform is A048876, third binomial transform is A082762, fourth binomial transform is A162769, fifth binomial transform is A093145 without initial 0.

FORMULA

a(n) = 5^((1/4)*(2*n-1+(-1)^n)).

G.f.: x*(1+5*x)/(1-5*x^2).

PROG

(MAGMA) [ n le 2 select 4*n-3 else 5*Self(n-2): n in [1..30] ];
