a(n+1)/a(n) converges to (47+sqrt(2205))/2 = 46.9787137... a(0)/a(1)=2/47; a(1)/a(2)=47/2207; a(2)/a(3)=2207/103682; a(3)/a(4)=103682/4870847; etc. Lim_{n->infinity} a(n)/a(n+1) = 0.02128623625... = 2/(47+sqrt(2205)) = (47-sqrt(2205))/2.
Let F(x) = Product_{n >= 0} (1 + x^(4*n+1))/(1 + x^(4*n+3)). Let Phi = 1/2*(sqrt(5) - 1). This sequence gives the partial denominators in the simple continued fraction expansion of the number F(Phi^8) = 1.0212763906... = 1 + 1/(47 + 1/(2207 + 1/(103682 + ...))).
Also F(-Phi^8) = 0.9787231991... has the continued fraction representation 1 - 1/(47 - 1/(2207 - 1/(103682 - ...))) and the simple continued fraction expansion 1/(1 + 1/((47 - 2) + 1/(1 + 1/((2207 - 2) + 1/(1 + 1/((103682 - 2) + 1/(1 + ...))))))).
F(Phi^8)*F(-Phi^8) = 0.9995468962... has the simple continued fraction expansion 1/(1 + 1/((47^2 - 4) + 1/(1 + 1/((2207^2 - 4) + 1/(1 + 1/((103682^2 - 4) + 1/(1 + ...))))))).
1/2 + 1/2*F(Phi^8)/F(-Phi^8) = 1.0217391349... has the simple continued fraction expansion 1 + 1/((47 - 2) + 1/(1 + 1/((103682 - 2) + 1/(1 + 1/(228826127 - 2) + 1/(1 + ...))))). (End)

FORMULA
|
a(n) = 47*a(n-1) - a(n-2), starting with a(0) = 2 and a(1) = 47.
a(n) = ((47+sqrt(2205))/2)^n + ((47-sqrt(2205))/2)^n
(a(n))^2 = a(2n)+2.
a(n) = trace(M^n), where M is the 2 X 2 matrix [0, 1; 1, 1]^8 = [13, 21; 21, 34].
Consequently the Gauss congruences hold: a(n*p^k) = a(n*p^(k-1)) ( mod p^k ) for all prime p and positive integers n and k. See Zarelua and also Stanley (Ch. 5, Ex. 5.2(a) and its solution).
45*Sum_{n >= 1} 1/(a(n) - 49/a(n)) = 1: (49 = Lucas(8) + 2 and 45 = Lucas(8) - 2)
49*Sum_{n >= 1} (-1)^(n+1)/(a(n) + 45/a(n)) = 1.
x*exp(Sum_{n >= 1} a(n)*x^/n) = x + 47*x^2 + 2208*x^3 + ... is the o.g.f. for A049668. (End)
E.g.f.: 2*exp(47*x/2)*cosh(21*sqrt(5)*x/2). - Stefano Spezia, Oct 18 2019

a(4) = 4870847 = 47*a(3) - a(2) = 47*103682 - 2207=((47+sqrt(2205))/2)^4 + ( (47-sqrt(2205))/2)^4 =4870846.999999794696 + 0.000000205303 = 4870847.
