%N Constant term of the reduction (by x^2->x+1) of polynomial p(n,x) identified in Comments.
%C To define the polynomials p(n,x), let d=sqrt(x+3); then p(n,x)=(1/2)((x+d)^n+(x-d)^n). These are similar to polynomials at A161516.
%C For an introduction to reductions of polynomials by substitutions such as x^2->x+1, see A192232.
%F Conjecture: a(n) = 2*a(n-1)+8*a(n-2)-4*a(n-3)-4*a(n-4). G.f.: -x*(4*x^2+2*x-1) / (4*x^4+4*x^3-8*x^2-2*x+1). [_Colin Barker_, Jan 17 2013]
%e The first four polynomials p(n,x) and their reductions are as follows:
%e p(0,x)=1 -> 1
%e p(1,x)=x -> x
%e p(2,x)=3+x+x^2 -> 4+2x
%e p(3,x)=9x+3x^2+x^3 -> 4+14x.
%e From these, we read
%e A192348=(1,0,3,4,...) and A192349=(0,1,2,14...)
