FORMULA
a(n) = A099924(2*n), n>=0.
O.g.f.: (4-11*x+11*x^2+x^3)/(1-3*x+x^2)^2.
a(n) = 4*(n+1)*F(2*n+1)-(2*n+1)*F(2*n), n>=0, with the Fibonacci numbers F(n)=A000045(n). From the partial fraction decomposition of the o.g.f. and the Fibonacci recurrence.
a(0)=4, a(1)=13, a(2)=45, a(3)=152, a(n) = 6*a(n-1)-11*a(n-2)+6*a(n-3)-a(n-4). - Harvey P. Dale, Jan 11 2014
