COMMENTS
The identity (78*n^2-1)^2-(1521*n^2-39)*(2*n)^2 = 1 can be written as A158771(n)^2-a(n)*A005843(n)^2 = 1.

FORMULA
G.f.: 39*x*(-38-41*x+x^2)/(x-1)^3.
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3).
From Amiram Eldar, Mar 23 2023: (Start)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = (1 - cot(Pi/sqrt(39))*Pi/sqrt(39))/78.
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = (cosec(Pi/sqrt(39))*Pi/sqrt(39) - 1)/78. (End)
