FORMULA
E.g.f.: exp(2x)/(1-4x).
a(n) = 4n*a(n-1)+2^n, n>0, a(0)=1.
a(n) +2*(-2*n-1)*a(n-1) +8*(n-1)*a(n-2) = 0. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 19 2015
From Emanuele Munarini, Dec 18 2017: (Start)
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)*4^k*k!*2^(n-k).
Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)*(-2)^(n-k)*a(k) = 4^n*n!. (End)
From Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 18 2017: (Start)
a(n) = exp(1/2) * 4^n * Gamma(n + 1, 1/2).
a(n) ~ n! * exp(1/2) * 4^n. (End)
MAPLE
f:= rectoproc({a(n) +2*(-2*n-1)*a(n-1) +8*(n-1)*a(n-2) = 0, a(0)=1, a(1)=6}, a(n), remember):
