a(n) is the number of generalized compositions of n when there are i^2+i-1 different types of i, (i = 1, 2, ...). - Milan Janjic, Sep 24 2010
Is this the same as the sequence visible in Table 5 of Pettersson, 2014? - N. J. A. Sloane, Jun 05 2015

FORMULA

a(n) = ceiling((1 - sqrt(1/3))*(2 + sqrt(3))^n) for n > 1.
a(1) = 1, a(2) = 6, a(3) = 22 and for n > 3, a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - a(n-2). (End)
O.g.f.: x*(1 + 2*x - x^2)/(1-4*x+x^2) = -2 - x + 2*(1 - 3*x)/(1-4*x+x^2). - R. J. Mathar, Nov 23 2007
a(n) = ((1 + sqrt(3))*(2 - sqrt(3))^n - (1 - sqrt(3))*(2 + sqrt(3))^n)/sqrt(3), n > 1.
E.g.f.: ((1 + sqrt(3))*exp((2 - sqrt(3))*x) - (1 - sqrt(3))*exp((2 + sqrt(3))*x) - (2 + x)*sqrt(3))/sqrt(3). (End)
a(n) = 2*(ChebyshevU(n-1, 2) - ChebyshevU(n-2, 2)) for n >1, with a(1)=1. - G. C. Greubel, Dec 23 2019
