Comments

a(n) is the first Zagreb index of the wheel graph with n + 1 vertices. The first Zagreb index of a simple connected graph is the sum of the squared degrees of its vertices. Alternately, it is the sum of the degree sums d(i) + d(j) over all edges ij of the graph. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 07 2016

The sequence provides all nonnegative k such that 4*k + 81 is a square. - Bruno Berselli, May 08 2018

From Amiram Eldar, Feb 12 2024: (Start)

Product_{n>=1} (1 - 1/a(n)) = -128*cos(sqrt(85)*Pi/2)/(19*Pi).

Product_{n>=1} (1 + 1/a(n)) = 51840*cos(sqrt(77)*Pi/2)/(4199*Pi). (End)
