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=10 and k=2.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = (4^n/10)*Sum_{r=0..9} cos(2*Pi*r/5)*cos(Pi*r/5)^(2*n).
a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 13*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3).
G.f.: (-x+3*x^2)/((-1+4*x)*(1-3*x+x^2)).
a(n) = (4^n + Lucas(2*n-1))/5. With a(0) = 0, binomial transform of A098703. - Ross La Haye, May 31 2006
a(n) = (2^(-1-n)*(2^(1+3*n) - (3-sqrt(5))^n*(1+sqrt(5)) + (-1+sqrt(5))*(3+sqrt(5))^n))/5. - Colin Barker, Apr 27 2016
E.g.f.: (2*exp(4*x) + (-1 - sqrt(5))*exp(((3 - sqrt(5))*x)/2) + (-1 + sqrt(5))*exp(((3 + sqrt(5))*x)/2))/10. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Apr 27 2016
