The sequence corresponds to the sequence of points Q+nP on the curve y^2 = 4*x^3 - (121/12)*x + 845/216, where Q=(-19/12,2) and P=(17/12,-1).
For every 5th-order bilinear recurrence of Somos-5 type, b(n+3)*b(n-2) = alpha*b(n+2)*b(n-1) + beta*b(n+1)*b(n) (alpha, beta constant), both the subsequence of even index a(n)=b(2n) and that of odd index a(n)=b(2n+1) satisfy the same 4th-order Somos-4 type recurrence a(n+2)*a(n-2) = gamma*a(n+1)*a(n-1) + delta*a(n)^2, where the constant coefficients gamma, delta can be given in terms of alpha, beta and the initial data b(0), b(1), b(2), b(3), b(4).
This is a generalized Somos-4 sequence. - Michael Somos, May 12 2022

FORMULA
|
a(n) = (a(n-1)*a(n-3) + 8*a(n-2)^2)/a(n-4).
Exact formula: a(n) = A*B^n*sigma(c+n*k)/sigma(k)^(n^2) where sigma is the Weierstrass sigma function associated to the elliptic curve y^2 = 4*x^3 - (121/12)*x + 845/216,
A = 1/sigma(c) = 0.142427718 - 1.037985022*i,
B = sigma(k)*sigma(c)/sigma(c+k)
= 0.341936209 + 0.389300717*i,
c = Integral_{infinity..-19/12} dx/y
= 0.163392410 + 0.973928783*i,
k = Integral_{17/12..infinity} dx/y
= 1.018573545,
all to 9 decimal places.
a(n) = a(2-n) = (-8*a(n-1)*a(n-4) + 57*a(n-2)*a(n-3))/a(n-5) for all n in Z. - Michael Somos, May 12 2022
