COMMENTS
a(n) + A153267(n) = 4*A001519(n) (apart from initial terms). The generating floretion Z = X*Y with X = 1.5'i + 0.5i' + .25(ii + jj + kk + ee) and Y = 0.5'i + 1.5i' + .25(ii + jj + kk + ee)
FORMULA
a(n) = 2*(-4)^n + (-2/5*sqrt(5)-1)*(3/2+1/2*sqrt(5))^n + (2/5*sqrt(5)-1)*(3/2-1/2*sqrt(5))^n
a(n)=A001519(n+3)+8*(-4)^n. G.f.: (13-6x)/((1+4x)(1-3x+x^2)). [From R. J. Mathar, Jan 05 2009]
EXAMPLE
a(4) = -1*(-423) + 11*162 - 4*(-19) = 2281
