FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = n^8 + 8*n^7 + 14*n^6 - 16*n^5 - 30*n^4 + 24*n^3 + 8*n^2 - 8*n + 1.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jul 21 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(2 + 1375*x + 16177*x^2 + 23723*x^3 - 551*x^4 - 563*x^5 + 179*x^6 - 23*x^7 + x^8) / (1 - x)^9.
a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 36*a(n-2) + 84*a(n-3) - 126*a(n-4) + 126*a(n-5) - 84*a(n-6) + 36*a(n-7) - 9*a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n>9.
(End)
