FORMULA
A255247(n)^2 - 2*a(n)^2 = -A001132(n), n >= 1, gives the second smallest positive (proper) solution of this (generalized) Pell equation.
a(n) = -(2*A255235(n+1) - 3*A255246(n+1)), n >= 1.
EXAMPLE
See A255247.
a(4) = -(2*1 - 3*4) = 12 - 2 = 10.
n=4: 13^2 - 2*10^2 = 169 - 200 = -31 = -A001132(4).
