a(n) = 72*n + a(n-1) with a(0)=5. - Vincenzo Librandi, Nov 12 2010
G.f.: (-5 - 62*x - 5*x^2) / (x-1)^3. - R. J. Mathar, Jan 19 2013
From Amiram Eldar, Feb 19 2023: (Start)
a(n) = A016921(n)*A016969(n).
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = log(2+sqrt(3))/(4*sqrt(3)).
Product_{n>=0} (1 - 1/a(n)) = 2*cos(sqrt(5)*Pi/6).
Product_{n>=0} (1 + 1/a(n)) = 2*cos(sqrt(3)*Pi/6). (End)
