%N a(n) = 16*a(n-1) - a(n-2).
%C Chebyshev's polynomials T(n,x) evaluated at x=8.
%C The a(n) give all (unsigned, integer) solutions of Pell equation a(n)^2 - 63*b(n)^2 = +1 with b(n)= A077412(n-1), n>=1 and b(0)=0.
%C Also gives solutions to the equation x^2-1=floor(x*r*floor(x/r)) where r=sqrt(7). - _Benoit Cloitre_, Feb 14 2004
%C a(7+14k)-1 and a(7+14k)+1 are consecutive odd powerful numbers. The first pair is 130576328+-1. See A076445. - _T. D. Noe_, May 04 2006
%C a(n)^2 - 7 * A001080(n)^2 = 1 (this property is equivalent to the second comment). - _Vincenzo Librandi_, Feb 17 2013
