Numbers of A002450 that are multiples of 5. Also sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 5,..., in the square spiral whose edges are the Jacobsthal numbers A001045 and whose vertices are the numbers A000975. This is a semi-diagonal in the spiral.
In binary, these numbers are 101...01 (see A031982). - Alonso del Arte, May 20 2017
0 together with Jacobsthal numbers ending with the decimal digit 5. - Jianing Song, Aug 30 2022

FORMULA
From Bruno Berselli, Sep 19 2011: (Start)
G.f.: 5*x/((1-x)*(1-16*x)).
a(n) = A002450(2n) = (16^n-1)/3.
From Jianing Song, Aug 30 2022: (Start)
a(n) = A001045(4*n).
E.g.f.: exp(x)*(exp(15*x) - 1)/3. - Stefano Spezia, Dec 17 2022
