%N Numerators of continued fraction convergents to sqrt(20).

%H Vincenzo Librandi, <a href="/A041030/b041030.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..200</a>

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_04">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (0,18,0,-1).

%F a(2n-1) = ceiling(1/(4/(Fibonacci(6n)*sqrt(5)-Lucas(6n)+2)-2)), a(2n) = ceiling(1/(1-2/(Fibonacci(6n+3)*sqrt(5)-Lucas(6n+3)+2))-2). - _Thomas Baruchel_

%F G.f.: (4+9*x+4*x^2-x^3)/(1-18*x^2+x^4).

%F From _Gerry Martens_, Jul 11 2015: (Start)

%F Interspersion of 2 sequences [a0(n),a1(n)] for n>0 :

%F a0(n) = -((2+sqrt(5))/(9+4*sqrt(5))^n)+(-2+sqrt(5))*(9+4*sqrt(5))^n.

%F a1(n) = (1/(9+4*sqrt(5))^n+(9+4*sqrt(5))^n)/2. (End)
