Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

The sequence is generated by taking increasing powers of the matrix M = {{0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1}, {-1, 4, 6, -24, 4, 6}}, multiplying the vector {0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5} from the right and storing the product's upper element.
