COMMENTS
More generally, the ordinary generating function for the generalized k-gonal numbers is x*(1 + (k - 4)*x + x^2)/((1 - x)^3*(1 + x)^2). A general formula for the generalized k-gonal numbers is given by (k*(2*n^2 + 2*((-1)^n + 1)*n + (-1)^n - 1) - 2*(2*n^2 + 2*(3*(-1)^n + 1)*n + 3*((-1)^n - 1)))/16.
For k>4, Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(k,n) = 2*(k-2)/(k-4)^2 + 2*Pi*cot(2*Pi/(k-2))/(k-4). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 05 2016

FORMULA
G.f.: x*(1 + 11*x + x^2)/((1 - x)^3*(1 + x)^2).
a(n) = a(n-1) + 2*a(n-2) - 2*a(n-3) - a(n-4) + a(n-5).
a(n) = (26*n^2 + 26*n + 9*(-1)^n*(2*n+1) - 9)/16.
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 26/121 + 2*Pi*cot(2*Pi/13)/11 = 1.3032041594895857... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 05 2016
