FORMULA
a(1) = 1; a(2) = 4; a(3) = 35; a(4) = 428; a(n) = 15a(n-1)-28a(n-2)+15a(n-3)-a(n-4) for n>= 5. The minimal polynomial of M is x^4-15x^3+28x^2-15x+1, the coefficients of which yield the coefficients of the recurrence relation.
O.g.f.: x*(1-11*x+3*x^2)/((x^2-13*x+1)*(x-1)^2). - R. J. Mathar, Dec 05 2007
