a(n+1)/a(n) -> 2. It appears that a(n) = A005126(n-2) for n >= 2.
This conjecture by Kimberling is proved in A288132. - Michel Dekking, Feb 18 2021
FORMULA
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jun 09 2017: (Start)
G.f.: x*(1 - 2*x + x^2 - x^3) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 - 2*x)).
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 5*a(n-2) + 2*a(n-3) for n>4.
(End)
Colin Barker's conjectures are a consequence of
a(n) = 2^{n-2} + n - 1 = A005126(n-2) for n >= 2. - Michel Dekking, Feb 18 2021
