%F From _Colin Barker_, Feb 09 2018: (Start)

%F a(n) = (4 - (2+8*i)*(-i)^n - (2-8*i)*i^n + i*((-i)^n-i^n)*n + 18*n^2) / 8 for n>2, where i=sqrt(-1).

%F a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 5*a(n-2) + 7*a(n-3) - 7*a(n-4) + 5*a(n-5) - 3*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n>9. (End)

%F a(n) = 1/2 + 9*n^2/4 + (-1)^floor(n/2)*(A027656(n-1)/2 - A010699(n)/4). - _R. J. Mathar_, Feb 12 2021
