FORMULA

Empirical: a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 14*a(n-2) + 8*a(n-3) - a(n-4) for n>6.

Conjectures from Colin Barker, Aug 10 2018: (Start)

G.f.: x^4*(5 - 16*x + 20*x^2) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 - 6*x + x^2)).

a(n) = (408 + sqrt(2)*((10041-7100*sqrt(2))*(3+2*sqrt(2))^n - (3-2*sqrt(2))^n*(10041+7100*sqrt(2))) - 72*(1+n)) / 32 for n>2.
