A second-order recurrence of promic type (integer roots).
If the number j = A002378(m) is promic (= i(i+1)), then a(n) = a(n-1) + j*a(n-2), a(0) = a(1) = 1 has a closed-form solution involving only powers of integers. The binomial coefficient sum solves the recurrence regardless of promicity (cf. GKP reference).
