COMMENTS

a(n+1)/a(n) converges to (7+sqrt(50)) = 14.071067811... Lim a(n)/a(n+1) as n approaches infinity = 0.071067811... = 1/(7+sqrt(50)) = (sqrt(50)-7). Lim a(n+1)/a(n) as n approaches infinity = 14.071067811... = (7+sqrt(50)) = 1/(sqrt(50)-7).

FORMULA

a(n) =14a(n-1) + a(n-2), starting with a(0) = 2 and a(1) = 14. a(n) = (7+sqrt(50))^n + (7-sqrt(50))^n. (a(n))^2 =a(2n)-2 if n=1, 3, 5..., (a(n))^2 =a(2n)+2 if n=2, 4, 6....

G.f.: (2-14*x)/(1-14*x-x^2). [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Nov 02 2008]

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 39202 = 14a(3) + a(2) = 14*2786+ 198 = (7+sqrt(50))^4 + (7-sqrt(50))^4 =39201.999974491 + 0.000025508 = 39202.
