COMMENTS

a(n)^2 - 8*b(n)^2 = 17, with the companion sequence b(n)= A077413(n).

The even part is A077240(n) with Diophantine companion A054488(n).

FORMULA

a(n)= 6*a(n-1) - a(n-2), a(-1) := 5, a(0)=7.

a(n)= 2*T(n+1, 3)+T(n, 3), with T(n, x) Chebyshev's polynomials of the first kind, A053120. T(n, 3)= A001541(n).

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

EXAMPLE

37 = a(1) = sqrt(8*A077413(1)^2 +17) = sqrt(8*13^2 + 17)= sqrt(1369) = 37.
