%H Alois P. Heinz, <a href="/A201271/b201271.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..10000</a> (terms n = 1..210 from R. H. Hardin)

%F a(n) = 3*a(n-3) -3*a(n-6) +a(n-9).

%F Subsequences for n modulo 3 = 1,2,0:

%F p=(n+2)/3: a(n) = 3*p^2

%F q=(n+1)/3: a(n) = 3*q^2 + 2*q

%F r=(n+0)/3: a(n) = r^2 + 2*r + 1.

%F G.f.: 1+x*(3 + 5*x + 4*x^2 + 3*x^3 + x^4 - 3*x^5 + x^8) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 + x + x^2)^3). - _Colin Barker_, May 22 2018
