Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (0,0,2,1).
FORMULA
G.f.: 1/(1 - 2*x^3 - x^4).
a(n) = 2*a(n-3) + a(n-4), with a(0)=1, a(1)=0, a(2)=0, a(3)=2.
a(n) = Sum_{alpha=RootOf(-1+2*z^3+z^4)} (1/86)*(4 +26*alpha -3*alpha^2 -6*alpha^3)*alpha^(-1-n).
MAPLE
spec := [S, {S=Sequence(Prod(Z, Z, Union(Z, Z, Prod(Z, Z))))}, unlabeled]: seq(combstruct[count](spec, size=n), n=0..50);
seq(coeff(series(1/(1 -2*x^3 -x^4), x, n+1), x, n), n = 0..50); # G. C. Greubel, Oct 16 2019
