%N Indices of centered octagonal numbers (A016754) which are also centered pentagonal numbers (A005891).

%C Also positive integers y in the solutions to 5*x^2 - 8*y^2 - 5*x + 8*y = 0, the corresponding values of x being A253410.

%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.: -x*(x^4 + 75*x^3 - 872*x^2 + 75*x + 1) / ((x-1)*(x^2 - 38*x + 1)*(x^2 + 38*x + 1)).

%e 76 is in the sequence because the 76th centered octagonal number is 22801, which is also the 96th centered pentagonal number.
