COMMENTS

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = 3+2*sqrt(2).

FORMULA

a(n) = ((50+31*sqrt(2))*(3-2*sqrt(2))^n+(50-31*sqrt(2))*(3+2*sqrt(2))^n)/4.

G.f.: x*(13-25*x)/(1-6*x+x^2).

PROG

(PARI) {m=20; v=concat([13, 53], vector(m-2)); for(n=3, m, v[n]=6*v[n-1]-v[n-2]); v}

CROSSREFS

First trisection of A155923.
