FORMULA
|
Empirical G.f.: -2*x*(x^2 - 3*x + 1) / ((x - 1)*(x + 1)*(2*x - 1)*(4*x - 1)). - Colin Barker, Nov 12 2012
a(n) = (-1 - (-1)^n + 2^n + 4^n) / 3.
a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 7*a(n-2) - 6*a(n-3) + 8*a(n-4) for n>4.

EXAMPLE
|
The first four polynomials p(n,x) and their reductions are as follows:
p(1,x)=1+x+x^2 -> 3+2x
p(2,x)=1+x^2+x^4 -> 9+6x
p(3,x)=1+x^3+x^6 -> 25+24x
p(4,x)=1+x^4+x^8 -> 93+90x.
