COMMENTS

The polynomial p(n,x) is defined by (u^n+v^n)//2)^n+(u^n-v^n)/(2d), where u=x+d, v=x-d, d=sqrt(x^2+2). For an introduction to reductions of polynomials by substitutions such as x^2->x+2, see A192232.

FORMULA

Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jun 07 2019: (Start)

G.f.: x*(1 + x)^2 / (1 - 2*x - 6*x^2 + 2*x^3 + x^4).

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + 6*a(n-2) - 2*a(n-3) - a(n-4) for n>3.

(End)

EXAMPLE

The first five polynomials p(n,x) and their reductions are as follows:

p(0,x)=1 -> 1

p(1,x)=1+x -> 1+x

p(2,x)=2+3x+x^2 -> 3+4x

p(3,x)=2+7x+6x^2+x^3 -> 9+15x

p(4,x)=4+12x+17x^2+10x^3+x^4 -> 33+52x.

From these, read

A192430=(1,1,3,9,33,...) and A192431=(0,1,4,15,52,...)
