FORMULA

a(n)=4a(n-1)+4a(n-2)-a(n-3)-a(n-4) for n>=4 (follows from the minimal polynomial of the matrix M).

MAPLE

with(linalg): M[1]:=matrix(4, 4, [3, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]): for n from 2 to 25 do M[n]:=multiply(M[1], M[n-1]) od: 0, seq(M[n][1, 4], n=1..25);

a[0]:=0: a[1]:=1: a[2]:=3: a[3]:=15: for n from 4 to 25 do a[n]:=4*a[n-1]+4*a[n-2]-a[n-3]-a[n-4] od: seq(a[n], n=0..25);

MATHEMATICA

M = {{3, 2, 1, 1}, {2, 1, 1, 0}, {1, 1, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 0}}; v[1] = {0, 0, 0, 1}; v[n_] := v[n] = M.v[n - 1] a1 = Table[v[n][[1]], {n, 1, 50}]
