%N Number of walks of length n between two nodes at distance 2 in the cycle graph C_9.

%C In general (2^n/m)*Sum_{r=0..m-1} cos(2*Pi*k*r/m)*cos(2*Pi*r/m)^n) is the number of walks of length n between two nodes at distance k in the cycle graph C_m. Here we have m=9 and k=2.

%F a(n) = (2^n/9)*Sum_{r=0..8} cos(4*Pi*r/9)*cos(2*Pi*r/9)^n).

%F G.f.: x^2(-1+x+x^2)/((1+x)*(-1+2x)*(1-3x^2+x^3));

%F a(n) = a(n-1) + 5*a(n-2) - 4*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + 2*a(n-5).
