COMMENTS

3*b(n)^2 - 5*a(n)^2 = 7, with the companion sequence b(n)= A077246(n).

The odd part is A077243(n) with Diophantine companion A077244(n).

FORMULA

a(n)= 8*a(n-1) - a(n-2), a(-1) := -2, a(0)=1.

a(n)= S(n, 8)+2*S(n-1, 8), with S(n, x) := U(n, x/2), Chebyshev's polynomials of the 2nd kind, A049310. S(-1, x) := 0 and S(n, 8)= A001090(n+1).

G.f.: (1+2*x)/(1-8*x+x^2).

a(n)=(1/2)*[4-sqrt(15)]^n-(1/5)*[4-sqrt(15)]^n*sqrt(15)+(1/2)*[4+sqrt(15)]^n+(1/5)*sqrt(15) *[4+sqrt(15)]^n, with n>=0 - Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Jul 08 2008

EXAMPLE

5*a(1)^2 + 7 = 5*10^2 + 7 = 507 = 3*13^2 = 3*A077246(1)^2.
