Binomial transform of A102285 without initial term 1. Fourth binomial transform of A164682. Inverse binomial transform of A164538.
FORMULA
a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 14*a(n-2) for n > 1; a(0) = 5, a(1) = 28.
G.f.: (5-12*x)/(1-8*x+14*x^2).
a(n) = ((5+4*sqrt(2))*(4+sqrt(2))^n + (5-4*sqrt(2))*(4-sqrt(2))^n)/2.
PROG
(Magma) Z<x>:=PolynomialRing(Integers()); N<r>:=NumberField(x^2-2); S:=[ ((5+4*r)*(4+r)^n+(5-4*r)*(4-r)^n)/2: n in [0..19] ]; [ Integers()!S[j]: j in [1..#S] ]; // Klaus Brockhaus, Aug 21 2009
