M^n * [1,0,0,0,0] = [a(n), A139761(n), A139748(n), A139714(n), A133476(n)]
where M = the 5 X 5 matrix [1,1,0,0,0; 0,1,1,0,0; 0,0,1,1,0; 0,0,0,1,1; 1,0,0,0,1]
Sum of terms = 2^n. Example: M^6 * [1,0,0,0,0] = [7, 15, 20, 15, 7]; sum = 2^6 = 64. (End)
{A139398, A133476, A139714, A139748, A139761} is the difference analog of the hyperbolic functions of order 5, {h_1(x), h_2(x), h_3(x), h_4(x), h_5 (x)}. For a definition see the reference "Higher Transcendental Functions" and the Shevelev link. - Vladimir Shevelev, Jun 14 2017

a(n) = round((2/5)*(2^(n-1) + phi^n*cos(Pi*n/5))), where phi is the golden ratio and round(x) is the integer nearest to x.
The formula follows from the identity a(n)=1/5*Sum_{j=1..5}((omega_5)^j + 1)^n, where omega_5=exp(2*Pi*i)/5 (cf. Theorem 1 of [Shevelev] link for i=1, n=5, m:=n). Further note that for a=cos(x)+i*sin(x), a+1 = 2*cos ^2 (x/2) + i*sin(x), and for the argument y of a+1 we have tan(y)=tan(x/2) and r^2 = 4*cos^4(x/2) + sin^2(x) = 4*cos^2(x/2). So (a+1)^n = (2*cos(x /2))^n*(cos(n*x/2) + i*sin(n*x/2)). Using this, for x=2*Pi/5, we have (omega_5+1)^n = phi^n(cos(Pi*n/5) + i*sin(Pi*n/5)). Since (omega_5)^4+1=(1+omega_5)/omega_5, we easily find that ((omega_5)^4+1)^n is conjugate to (omega_5+1)^n. So (omega_5+1)^n+((omega_5)^4+1)^n = phi^n*cos(Pi*n/5). Further, we similarly obtain that (omega_5)^2+1 is conjugate to (omega_5) ^3+1=(1+(omega_5)^2)/(omega_5)^2 and ((omega_5)^2+1)^n +((omega_5)^3+1)^n = 2*(sqrt(2-phi))^n*cos(2*Pi*n/5). The absolute value of the latter <= 2*(2-phi)^(n/2) and quickly tends to 0. Finally, ((omega_5)^5+1)^n=2^n, and the formula follows. (End)
a(n+m) = a(n)*a(m) + H_2(n)*H_5(m) + H_3(n)*H_4(m) + H_4(n)*H_3(m) + H_5(n)*H_2(m), where H_2=A133476, H_3=A139714, H_4=A139748, H_5=A139761. - Vladimir Shevelev, Jun 17 2017
