Also the number of paths along a corridor width 10, starting from one side.
In general, a(n,m) = (2^n/(m+1))*Sum_{r=1..m} (1-(-1)^r)*cos(Pi*r/(m+1))^n*(1+cos(Pi*r/(m+1))) gives the number of paths of length n starting at the initial node on the path graph P_m. Here we have m=10. - Herbert Kociemba, Sep 14 2020

FORMULA

From Stefano Spezia, Jul 30 2020: (Start)
G.f.: (1 - 3*x^2 + x^4)/(1 - x - 4*x^2 + 3*x^3 + 3*x^4 - x^5).
a(n) = a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2) - 3*a(n-3) - 3*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n > 4. (End)
a(n) = (2^n/11)*Sum_{r=1..10} (1-(-1)^r)*cos(Pi*r/11)^n*(1+cos(Pi*r/11)). - Herbert Kociemba, Sep 14 2020
