%N Number of (n+1) X 3 0..2 matrices with each 2 X 2 subblock idempotent

%C Column 2 of A224676.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A224670/b224670.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 4*a(n-1) -5*a(n-2) +a(n-3) +2*a(n-4) -a(n-5).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Feb 17 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(25 - 50*x + x^2 + 44*x^3 - 21*x^4) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 - x - x^2)).

%F a(n) = -2 + 2^(1-n)*sqrt(5)*(-(1-sqrt(5))^(1+n) + (1+sqrt(5))^(1+n)) + 2*(1+n) + (1+n)*(2+n)/2.

%F (End)
