%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_05">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (1,1442,-1442,-1,1).

%F a(n) = a(n-1)+1442*a(n-2)-1442*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5).

%F G.f.: -9*x*(x^3+117*x^2+39*x+3) / ((x-1)*(x^2-38*x+1)*(x^2+38*x+1)).

%e 27 is in the sequence because 27^2+28^2+29^2 = 729+784+841 = 2354 = 697+783+874 = H(17)+H(18)+H(19).
