Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (786,-1).

Formula

G.f.: (1 + x)/(1 - 2*393*x + x^2).

a(n) = S(n, 2*393) + S(n-1, 2*393) = S(2*n, 2*sqrt(197)), with Chebyshev polynomials of the 2nd kind. See A049310 for the triangle of S(n, x) = U(n, x/2) coefficients. S(-1, x) = 0 = U(-1, x).

a(n) = ((-1)^n)*T(2*n+1, 14*i)/(14*i) with the imaginary unit i and Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind. See the T-triangle A053120.

a(n) = 786*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n > 1; a(0)=1, a(1)=787. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 18 2008

a(n) = (1/14)*sinh((2*n + 1)*arcsinh(14)). - Bruno Berselli, Apr 05 2018

Example

(x,y) = (14*1=14;1), (11018=14*787;785), (8660134=14*618581;617009), ... give the positive integer solutions to x^2 - 197*y^2 =-1.
