FORMULA
From Wesley Ivan Hurt, May 29 2016: (Start)
G.f.: x^2*(2+x+4*x^2+x^3)/((x-1)^2*(1+x+x^2+x^3)).
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-4) - a(n-5) for n>5.
a(n) = 2*n+(1+i)*(4*i-4+(1-i)*i^(2n)+i^(-n)-i^(1+n))/4 where i=sqrt(-1).
E.g.f.: (2 + sin(x) + cos(x) + (4*x - 5)*sinh(x) + (4*x - 3)*cosh(x))/2. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, May 29 2016
Sum_{n>=2} (-1)^n/a(n) = (3-sqrt(2))*log(2)/8 + sqrt(2)*log(2+sqrt(2))/4 - (2*sqrt(2)-1)*Pi/16. - Amiram Eldar, Dec 21 2021
