COMMENTS

a(n)^2 - 3*b(n)^2 = 13, with the companion sequence b(n)= A077234(n).

The even part is A077236(n) with Diophantine companion A054491(n).

FORMULA

a(n)= 2*T(n+1, 2)+T(n, 2), with T(n, x) Chebyshev's polynomials of the first kind, A053120. T(n, 2)= A001075(n).

G.f.: (5-4*x)/(1-4*x+x^2).

a(n)=4*a(n-1)-a(n-2) with a(0)=5 and a(1)=16. [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Nov 16 2008]

a(n)=-sqrt(3)*[2-sqrt(3)]^n+sqrt(3)*[2+sqrt(3)]^n+(5/2)*[2-sqrt(3)]^n+(5/2)*[2+sqrt(3)]^n, with n>=0 [From Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Nov 20 2008]

EXAMPLE

16 = a(1) = sqrt(3*A077234(1)^2 + 13) = sqrt(3*9^2 + 13)= sqrt(256) = 16.
