Formula

G.f.: (1-4*x^2) / (1 - x - 8*x^2 - 4*x^3 + 16*x^4).

Example

G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 4*x + 17*x^2 + 80*x^3 + 369*x^4 + 1700*x^5 + 7841*x^6 +...
The terms equal the norm of the complex coefficients in the expansion:
1/(1-x-2*I*x^2) = 1 + x + (1 + 2*I)*x^2 + (1 + 4*I)*x^3 + (-3 + 6*I)*x^4 + (-11 + 8*I)*x^5 + (-23 + 2*I)*x^6 + (-39 - 20*I)*x^7 + (-43 - 66*I)*x^8 +...
so that
a(1) = 1, a(2) = 1 + 2^2, a(3) = 1 + 4^2, a(4) = 3^2 + 6^2, a(5) = 11^2 + 8^2, ...

Prog

(PARI) {a(n)=norm(polcoeff(1/(1-x-2*I*x^2+x*O(x^n)), n))}
for(n=0, 30, print1(a(n), ", "))
