%F From _Paul Curtz_, Nov 07 2008: (Start)

%F a(n) = 16*A016754(n).

%F a(n+2) = A061042(2n+1), from Brackett spectrum of hydrogen. (End)

%F From _Amiram Eldar_, Apr 25 2023: (Start)

%F a(n) = A017113(n)^2.

%F a(n) = 2^2*A016826(n).

%F Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = Pi^2/128.

%F Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = G/16, where G is Catalan's constant (A006752). (End)
