Binomial transform of A163607. Inverse binomial transform of A163609.
FORMULA
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) for n > 1; a(0) = 5, a(1) = 14.
G.f.: (5-6*x)/(1-4*x+2*x^2).
a(n) = 5*A007070(n) - 6*A007070(n-1). - R. J. Mathar, Nov 08 2013
E.g.f.: exp(2*x)*( 5*cosh(sqrt(2)*x) + 2*sqrt(2)*sinh(sqrt(2)*x) ). - G. C. Greubel, Jul 29 2017
