%N Rolling icosahedron footprints: number of n X 5 0..11 arrays starting with 0 where 0..11 label vertices of an icosahedron and every array movement to a horizontal or antidiagonal neighbor moves along an icosahedral edge.

%C Column 5 of A223321.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A223318/b223318.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 479*a(n-1) - 15210*a(n-2).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Aug 19 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: 125*x*(5 - 198*x) / (1 - 479*x + 15210*x^2).

%F a(n) = (25*2^(-1-n)*((479-sqrt(168601))^n*(-3181+11*sqrt(168601)) + (479+sqrt(168601))^n*(3181+11*sqrt(168601)))) / (169*sqrt(168601)).
