%N a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2), a(0)=1, a(1)=1.
%C Inverse binomial transform of A001077. Binomial transform of expansion of cosh(sqrt(5)*x) (1,0,5,0,25,...).
%C The same sequence may be obtained by the following process. Starting a priori with the fraction 1/1, the numerators of fractions built according to the rule: add top and bottom to get the new bottom, add top and 5 times the bottom to get the new top. The limit of the sequence of fractions is sqrt(5). - _Cino Hilliard_, Sep 25 2005
%C Numerators of fractions in the approximation of the square root of 5 satisfying: a(n) = (a(n-1)+c)/(a(n-1)+1), with c=5 and a(1)=1. For denominators see A063727. - _Mark Dols_, Jul 24 2009
%C Equals right border of triangle A143969. (1, 6, 16, 56, ...) = row sums of triangle A143969 and INVERT transform of (1, 5, 5, 5, ...). - _Gary W. Adamson_, Sep 06 2008
%C a(n) is the number of compositions of n when there are 1 type of 1 and 5 types of other natural numbers. - _Milan Janjic_, Aug 13 2010
%C From _Gary W. Adamson_, Jul 30 2016: (Start)
%C The sequence is case N=1 in an infinite set obtained by taking powers of the 2 X 2 matrix M = [(1,5); (1,N)], then extracting the upper left terms. The infinite set begins:
%C N=1 (A084057): 1, 6, 16, 56, 176, 576, 1856, ...
%C N=2 (A108306): 1, 6, 21, 81, 306, 1161, 4401, ...
%C N=3 (A164549): 1, 6, 26, 116, 516, 2296, 10216, ...
%C N=4 (A015449): 1, 6, 31, 161, 836, 4341, 22541, ...
%C N=5 (A000400): 1, 6, 36, 216, 1296, 7776, 46656, ...
%C N=6 (A049685): 1, 6, 41, 281, 1926, 13201, 90481, ...
%C N=7 (.......): 1, 6, 46, 356, 2756, 21336, 222712, ...
%C ...
%C Sequences in the above set can be obtained by taking INVERT transforms of the following:
%C N=1 INVERT transform of (1, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, ...
%C N=2 ..."......"......". (1, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, ...
%C N=3 ..."......"......". (1, 5, 15, 45, 135, 405, ...
%C N=4 ..."......"......". (1, 5, 20, 80, 320, 1280, ...
%C ...
%C with the pattern (1, 5, N*5, (N^2)*5, (N^3)*5, ...
%C It appears that the sequence generated from powers (n>0) of the matrix P = [(1,a); (1,b)], (a,b > 0), then extracting the upper left terms, is equal to the INVERT transform of the sequence starting: (1, a, b*a, (b^2)*a, (b^3)*a, ...). (End)
