FORMULA
From G. C. Greubel, Jul 11 2023: (Start)
a(n) = (1/2)*Sum_{j=0..n} T(n, j)*A078008(j), where T(n, k) = [x^k] ((x + sqrt(x^2+4))^n + (x - sqrt(x^2+4))^n)/2^n.
a(n) = (1/3)*((-1)^n*A000032(n) + A000129(n+1) - A000129(n)).
a(n) = a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2) - a(n-3) - a(n-4).
G.f.: (1+x)*(1-2*x)/((1+x-x^2)*(1-2*x-x^2)). (End)
EXAMPLE
The first five polynomials p(n,x) and their reductions are as follows:
p(0,x) = 2 -> 2
p(1,x) = x -> x
p(2,x) = 2 + x^2 -> 4 + x
p(3,x) = 3*x + x^3 -> 2 + 6*x
p(4,x) = 2 + 4*x^2 + x^4 -> 16 + 9*x.
From these, read A192423(n) = 2*a(n) = (2, 0, 4, 2, 16, ...) and A192425 = (0, 1, 1, 6, 9, ...).
