COMMENTS
a(n) is equal to the rational part (with respect to the field Q(sqrt(13))) of the product sqrt(2*(13-3*sqrt(13))/13)*X(2*n-1), where X(n) = sqrt((13 + 3*sqrt(13))/2)*X(n-1) - sqrt(13)*X(n-2) + sqrt((13 - 3*sqrt(13))/2)*X(n-3), with X(0)=3, X(1)=sqrt((13 + 3*sqrt(13))/2), and X(2)=(13 - sqrt(13))/2.
The Berndt-type sequence number 6 for the argument 2*Pi/13 defined by the relation a(n) + A216540(n)*sqrt(13) = sqrt(2*(13-3*sqrt(13))/13)*X(2*n-1), where X(n) := s(2)^n + s(5)^n + s(6)^n, and s(j) := 2*sin(2*Pi*j/13), j=1,2,...,6.
We note that all numbers a(n+1)-4*a(n) for n=3,4,..., are divisible by 13. For example we have a(4)=4*a(3), a(5)-4*a(4)=13, a(6)-4*a(5)=5*13, a(7)-4*a(6)=20*13, and a(10)-4*a(9)=70*13^2.
a(n) is also equal to the rational part (with respect to the field Q(sqrt(13))) of the product sqrt(2*(13+3*sqrt(13))/13)*Y(2*n-1), where Y(n) = sqrt((13 - 3*sqrt(13))/2)*Y(n-1) + sqrt(13)*Y(n-2) - sqrt((13 + 3*sqrt(13))/2)*Y(n-3), with Y(0)=3, Y(1)=sqrt((13 - 3*sqrt(13))/2), and Y(2)=(13 + sqrt(13))/2. Let us observe that a(n) - A216540(n)*sqrt(13) = sqrt(2*(13+3*sqrt(13))/13)*Y(2*n-1) and Y(n) = s(1)^n + s(3)^n + s(9)^n (we have s(9) = -s(4)). - Roman Witula, Sep 22 2012

FORMULA
G.f.: -x*(-2 + 22*x - 91*x^2 + 169*x^3 - 130*x^4 + 26*x^5) / (1 - 13*x + 65*x^2 - 156*x^3 + 182*x^4 - 91*x^5 + 13*x^6). - R. J. Mathar, Sep 18 2012
EXAMPLE
It can be shown that 4*X(5) - X(7) = sqrt(26*(13+3*sqrt(13))), 4*X(7) - X(9) = 13*(sqrt(13) - 1)*sqrt(2*(13 + 3*sqrt(13)))/4, and 4*X(11) - X(13) = 130*(sqrt(13) - 2)*sqrt(2*(13 + 3*sqrt(13)))/4, which implies
(4*X(7) - X(9))/(4*X(5) - X(7)) = 13*(sqrt(13) - 1) and
(4*X(11) - X(13))/(4*X(7) - X(9)) = 10*(sqrt(13) - 2)/(sqrt(13) - 1) = 5*(11 - sqrt(13))/6.
We also have a(6) - a(3) - a(1) = 4000, a(9) - 2*a(4) - a(3) + 3*a(1) = 300000, and a(11) - a(5) + a(4) - 2*a(2) - a(1) = 5100000.
