COMMENTS
a(n) is the second Zagreb index of the single-defect 4-gonal nanocone CNC(4,n) (see definition in the Doslic et al. reference, p. 27).
The second Zagreb index of a simple connected graph is the sum of the degree products d(i)d(j) over all edges ij of the graph.
The M-polynomial of CNC(4,n) is M(CNC(4,n);x,y) = 4*x^2*y^2 + 8*n*x^2*y^3 + 2*n*(3*n+1)*x^3*y^3.
More generally, the M-polynomial of CNC(k,n) is M(CNC(k,n); x,y) = k*x^2*y^2 + 2*k*n*x^2*y^3 + k*n*(3*n + 1)*x^3*y^3/2.
6*a(n) + 25 is a square. - Bruno Berselli, May 14 2018

FORMULA
From Colin Barker, May 14 2018: (Start)
G.f.: 4*(4 + 22*x + x^2) / (1 - x)^3.
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3) for n>2.
