Number of 4D hypercubes in n-dimensional hypercube. - Henry Bottomley, Apr 14 2000
With four leading zeros, binomial transform of C(n,4). - Paul Barry, Apr 10 2003
If X_1, X_2, ..., X_n is a partition of a 2n-set X into 2-blocks, then, for n>3, a(n) is equal to the number of (n+4)-subsets of X intersecting each X_i (i=1,2,...,n). - Milan Janjic, Jul 21 2007

FORMULA
a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + A001789(n-1).
From Paul Barry, Apr 10 2003: (Start)
O.g.f.: x^4/(1-2*x)^5.
E.g.f.: exp(2*x)(x^4/4!) (with 4 leading zeros). (End)
a(n) = Sum_{i=4..n} binomial(i,4)*binomial(n,i). Example: for n=7, a(7) = 1*35 + 5*21 + 15*7 + 35*1 = 280. - Bruno Berselli, Mar 23 2018
From Amiram Eldar, Jan 06 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=4} 1/a(n) = 20/3 - 8*log(2).
Sum_{n>=4} (-1)^n/a(n) = 216*log(3/2) - 260/3. (End)
