COMMENTS
a(n) is the sum of square divisors of 2^n. - Paul Barry, Oct 13 2005
Decimal representation of the x-axis, from the left edge to the origin, of the n-th stage of growth of the two-dimensional cellular automaton defined by "Rule 131", based on the 5-celled von Neumann neighborhood. See A279053 for references and links. - Robert Price, Dec 05 2016

FORMULA
G.f.: 1/(-1+4*x^2)/(-1+x).
Recurrence: {a(1)=1, a(0)=1, -4*a(n) - 1 + a(n+2) = 0}.
a(n) = -1/3 + Sum((1/6)*(1+4*_alpha)*_alpha^(-1-n), where _alpha=RootOf(-1+4*_Z^2))
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} 2^k(1+(-1)^k)/2. - Paul Barry, Nov 24 2003
a(n) = a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2) - 4*a(n-3). - Paul Curtz, Apr 27 2011
a(n) = (4^(1 + floor((n-1)/2) - 1)/3. - Federico Provvedi, Oct 19 2018
a(n)-a(n-1) = A199572(n). - R. J. Mathar, Feb 27 2019
a(n) = A263053(n)/2. - Pascal Bisson, Feb 03 2022
