FORMULA
G.f.: (-x^4)/((-1+x)^5 - x^5). - Peter J. C. Moses, Jul 05 2017
For n>=1, a(n) = (2/5)*(phi+2)^(n/2)*(cos(Pi*(n-8)/10) + (phi-1)^n*cos (3* Pi*(n-8)/10)), where phi is the golden ratio;
a(n+m) = a(n)*K_1(m) + K_4(n)*K_2(m) + K_3(n)*K_3(m) + K_2(n)*K_4(m) + K_1(n)*a(m), where K_1 is A289306, K_2 is A289321, K_3 is A289387, K_4 is A289388.
a(n) = 0 if and only if n=0,1,2 or n==3 (mod 10). - Vladimir Shevelev, Jul 15 2017
