If 14k+1 is a perfect square..(0,12,16,52,60,120..) then the square root of 14k+1 = a(n) - Gary Detlefs, Feb 22 2010
More generally, these numbers are of the form (2*h*n+(h-4)*(-1)^n-h)/4 (h, n natural numbers), therefore ((2*h*n+(h-4)*(-1)^n-h)/4)^2-1==0 (mod h); in our case, a(n)^2-1==0 (mod 14). Also a(n)^2-1==0 (mod 28). - Bruno Berselli, Oct 26 2010 - Nov 17 2010

FORMULA
a(n) = 14*(n-1)-a(n-1), n>1. - R. J. Mathar, Jan 30 2010
From Bruno Berselli, Oct 26 2010: (Start)
a(n) = -a(-n+1) = (14*n+5*(-1)^n-7)/2.
G.f.: x*(1+12*x+x^2)/((1+x)*(1-x)^2).
a(n) = a(n-2)+14 for n>2.
a(n) = 14*A000217(n-1)+1 - 2*sum[i=1..n-1] a(i) for n>1. (End)
a(0)=1, a(1)=13, a(2)=15, a(n)=a(n-1)+a(n-2)-a(n-3). - Harvey P. Dale, May 11 2011
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = (Pi/14)*cot(Pi/14). - Amiram Eldar, Dec 04 2021
E.g.f.: 1 + ((14*x - 7)*exp(x) + 5*exp(-x))/2. - David Lovler, Sep 04 2022
