FORMULA

{k: 15+k*(k+1)/2 in A000290}

Conjecture: a(n)= +a(n-1) +6*a(n-4) -6*a(n-5) -a(n-8) +a(n-9).

Conjecture: G.f.: x*(-1-3*x-2*x^2-5*x^3-3*x^4+5*x^5+2*x^6+3*x^7+2*x^8)/((x-1) * (x^4+2*x^2-1) * (x^4-2*x^2-1)) = (4+(7+4*x+16*x^2+11*x^3)/(x^4-2*x^2-1)+1/(x-1)+(-4-7*x-3*x^2-2*x^3)/(x^4+2*x^2-1))/2 .

EXAMPLE

1*(1+1)/2+15 = 4^2. 4*(4+1)/2+15 = 5^2. 6*(6+1)/2+15 = 6^2. 11*(11+1)/2+15 = 9^2.
