COMMENTS
The identity (10*n^2+1)^2 - (25*n^2+5) *(2*n)^2 = 1 can be written as A158187(n)^2 - a(n)*A005843(n)^2 = 1.

FORMULA
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3).
G.f: 5*x*(6+3*x+x^2)/(1-x)^3.
From Amiram Eldar, Mar 05 2023: (Start)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = (coth(Pi/sqrt(5))*Pi/sqrt(5) - 1)/10.
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = (1 - cosech(Pi/sqrt(5))*Pi/sqrt(5))/10. (End)
