FORMULA
|
a(n) = 2*n + a(n-1) + 5 (with a(0) = 1). - Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 05 2010
a(n) = A028560(n) + 1; A014616(n) = floor(a(n+1)/4). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 07 2013
G.f.: ( -1 - 5*x + 4*x^2 ) / (x-1)^3. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 24 2013
Sum_{n >= 0} 1/a(n) = 51/112 - Pi*cot(2*Pi*sqrt(2))/(4*sqrt(2)) = 1.3839174974448... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Apr 10 2016

EXAMPLE
