1,5

a(n; 2,2) where a(n; t,s) is the number of length n 4-ary strings whose digits sum to t mod 4 and whose sum of products of all pairs of digits sum to s mod 4.

F. Ruskey, Strings over Z_4 of given Trace and Subtrace

a(n; t, s) = a(n-1; t, s) + a(n-1; t+3, s+3t+1) + a(n-1; t+2, s+2t) + a(n-1; t+1, s+t+1) where t is the trace and s is the subtrace.
