COMMENTS
a(n+1)/a(n) tends alternately to (7+2*sqrt(10))/3 and (13+4*sqrt(10))/3; a(n+2)/a(n) tends to A176398^2.
Subsequence of A014601.

FORMULA
G.f.: 3*x*(1+4*x+x^2)/((1-x)*(1-6*x-x^2)*(1+6*x-x^2)).
a(n) = a(-n+1) = a(n-1)+38*a(n-2)-38*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5).
a(n) = -1/2+((5+t*(-1)^n)*(3-t)^(2*floor(n/2))+(5-t*(-1)^n)*(3+t)^(2*floor(n/2)))/20, where t=sqrt(10).
2*a(n)+1 = A221875(n).
