%N a(n) = n^2 + 5*n - 1.

%C For n>1: a(n) = A176271(n+2,n-1). - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Apr 13 2010

%C a(n-2) = n*(n + 1) - 7, n>=0, with a(-2) = -7, a(-1) = -5 and a(0) = -1, gives the values for a*c of indefinite binary quadratic forms [a, b, c] of discriminant D = 29 for b = 2*n + 1. In general D = b^2 - 4*a*c > 0 and the form [a, b, c] is a*x^2 + b*x*y + c*y^2. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Aug 16 2013

%C Numbers m such that 4m+29 is an odd square, starting with 7^2 = A016754(3). - _Bruce J. Nicholson_, Jul 11 2017
