A008592 and A005408 interleaved.
Partial sums give the generalized 14-gonal (or tetradecagonal) numbers A195818.
a(n) is also the length of the n-th line segment of a rectangular spiral on the infinite square grid. The vertices of the spiral are the generalized 14-gonal numbers. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 27 2018
FORMULA
a(n) = (2*(-1)^n+3)*n. - Vincenzo Librandi, Sep 30 2011
From Bruno Berselli, Sep 30 2011: (Start)
G.f.: x*(1+10*x+x^2)/((1-x)^2*(1+x)^2).
a(n) = -a(-n) = a(n-2)*n/(n-2) = 2*a(n-2)-a(n-4).
a(n) * a(n+1) = a(n(n+1)).
a(n) + a(n+1) = A091998(n+1). (End)
a(0)=0, a(1)=1, a(2)=10, a(3)=3, a(n)=2*a(n-2)-a(n-4). - Harvey P. Dale, Nov 24 2013
Multiplicative with a(2^e) = 5*2^e, a(p^e) = p^e for odd prime p. - Andrew Howroyd, Jul 23 2018
Dirichlet g.f.: zeta(s-1) * (1 + 2^(3-s)). - Amiram Eldar, Oct 25 2023
