COMMENTS

The a(n) represent the Gi4 sums of the Pell-Jacobsthal triangle A013609. See A180662 for information about these giraffe and other chess sums.

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..20.

FORMULA

a(n) = 9*a(n-1)-24*a(n-2)+32*a(n-3)-16*a(n-4) with a(0)=1, a(1)=3, a(2)= 15 and a(3)= 87.

a(n) = add(A013609(n+3*k,n-k),k=0..floor(n)).

GF(x) = (1-6*x+12*x^2-8*x^3)/(1-9*x+24*x^2-32*x^3+16*x^4).

MAPLE

nmax:=21: a(0):=1: a(1):=3: a(2):=15: a(3):=87: for n from 4 to nmax do a(n) := 9*a(n-1)-24*a(n-2)+32*a(n-3)-16*a(n-4) od: seq(a(n), n=0..nmax);
