COMMENTS
Appears to be coordination sequence for node of type 4^4 in "krm" 2-D tiling (or net).
Also appears to be coordination sequence for tetravalent node in "krk" 2-D tiling (or net).
Linear recurrence and g.f. confirmed by Shutov/Maleev link. - Ray Chandler, Aug 30 2023

FORMULA
For explicit formula for a(n) see Maple code.
a(n) = 9*n/2 + (1 - (-1)^n)*i^(n*(n + 1))/4 for n>0, a(0)=1 and i=sqrt(-1). Therefore, for even n>0 a(n) = 9*n/2, otherwise a(n) = 9*n/2 - (-1)^((n-1)/2)/2. - Bruno Berselli, Mar 23 2018
a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) + 2*a(n-3) - a(n-4) for n>4. - Colin Barker, Mar 23 2018
MAPLE
