FORMULA

a(n)= 2*a(n-1) +25*a(n-2).

a(n)=((1+sqrt(26)^n-(1-sqrt(26))^n)/(2*sqrt(26)) [From Rolf Pleisch (r_pleisch(AT)gmx.ch), Jul 06 2009]

MATHEMATICA

(* coefficient expansion*) l = 2; m = 5; p[x_] := -1 - l*x/m + x^2 q[x_] := ExpandAll[x^2*p[1/x]] Table[ SeriesCoefficient[ Series[x/q[x], {x, 0, 30}], n]*m^(n - 1), {n, 0, 30}] (* Binet/ recursion *)

f[n_Integer] = Module[{a}, a[n] /. RSolve[{a[n] == l*a[n - 1]/m + a[n - 2], a[0] == 0, a[1] == 1}, a[n], n][[1]] // FullSimplify] ; a = Table[Rationalize[N[f[n]*m^(n - 1), 100], 0], {n, 0, 25}]

Join[{a=0, b=1}, Table[c=2*b+25*a; a=b; b=c, {n, 60}]] (*From Vladimir Joseph Stephan Orlovsky, Feb 01 2011*)
