FORMULA

a(n)=5a(n-1)-a(n-2); a(0)=1, a(1)=13.

(A054477)=sqrt{21*(A002320)^2-20}; where the algebraic operations on (A------) are performed from the inside - out; that is, first squared, then multiplied by 21, then 20 is subtracted and finally the square root is performed term-by-term.

G.f.: (1+8*x)/(1-5*x+x^2) [From Alois P. Heinz (heinz(AT)hs-heilbronn.de), Aug 07 2008]

MAPLE

a := n-> (Matrix([[1, -8]]). Matrix([[5, 1], [ -1, 0]])^(n))[1, 1]; seq (a(n), n=0..20); [From Alois P. Heinz (heinz(AT)hs-heilbronn.de), Aug 07 2008]
