Comments

Generally (if p>0, q>1), recurrence a(n) = b*a(n-1) + (p*q^n+d)*a(n-2), a(n) is asymptotic to c*q^(n^2/4)*(p*q)^(n/2), where c is for fixed parameters b, p, d, q, a(0), a(1) constant, independent on n.

Formula

a(n) ~ c * 2^(n^2/4 + n/2), where c = 0.548441579870783378573455400152590154... if n is even and c = 0.800417244834941368929416800341853541... if n is odd.

a(n) = Sum_{k=1..floor(n/2+1/2)} qbinomial(n-k,k-1)*2^(k^2-1), where q-binomial is triangle A022166, that is, with q=2. - Vladimir Kruchinin, Jan 20 2020
