COMMENTS
Binomial transform of A163062. Second binomial transform of A163114. Inverse binomial transform of A098648 without initial 1.
FORMULA
a(n) = 4*a(n-1)+a(n-2) for n > 1; a(0) = 3, a(1) = 11.
G.f.: (3-x)/(1-4*x-x^2).
a(n) = A033887(n) + A014445(n+1).
a(n) = ((3+sqrt(5))*(2+sqrt(5))^n+(3-sqrt(5))*(2-sqrt(5))^n)/2.
a(n) = A000032(3*n+2), n>=0, (Lucas trisection). - Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 09 2011.
a(n) = 5*F(n)*F(n+1)*L(n+1) + L(n+2)*(-1)^n with F(n)=A000045(n) and L(n)=A000032(n). - J. M. Bergot, Dec 10 2015
