Comments

a(n) is defined for n < 0 and a(-n) = a(n-4) for any n; a(-3) = a(-1) = 15, a(-2) = 10. - Jean-Christophe Hervé, Nov 11 2015

Formula

a(n) = 5*A059100(n+2).

From Colin Barker, Mar 29 2012: (Start)

G.f.: 5*(6-7*x+3*x^2)/(1-x)^3.

a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3) for n>2. (End)

a(n) = 5*(n + 2)^2 + 10. a(n) is never square. - Bruno Berselli, Jul 29 2015

E.g.f.: 5*(6 + 5*x + x^2)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Aug 24 2022

From Amiram Eldar, Sep 15 2022: (Start)

Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = coth(sqrt(2)*Pi)*Pi/(10*sqrt(2)) - 7/60.

Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = cosech(sqrt(2)*Pi)*Pi/(10*sqrt(2)) + 1/60. (End)
