COMMENTS
a(n) is the second Zagreb index of the molecular graph NS2[n], defined pictorially in the Ashrafi et al. reference (Fig. 2, where NS2[2] is shown).
The second Zagreb index of a simple connected graph is the sum of the degree products d(i)d(j) over all edges ij of the graph.
The M-polynomial of NS2[n] is M(NS2[n]; x,y) = (12*2^n + 2)*x^2*y^2 + (24*2^n - 8)*x^2*y^3 + x^3*y^3.

FORMULA
From Colin Barker, May 14 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(353 - 322*x) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)).
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) for n>2.
(End)
