%N a(n)-1, a(n) and a(n)+1 form three consecutive integers that can be factored into Fibonacci numbers.

%C In general it can be shown that F(n-1)F(n+1), F(n)^2, F(n-2)F(n+2) form three consecutive increasing integers when n is odd and F(n-2)F(n+2), F(n)^2, F(n-1)F(n+1) for three consecutive increasing integers when n is even. Thus the sequence is infinite. [Corrected by _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Jul 17 2012]

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_03">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (2,2,-1).

%F Except for n = 1, 2, 4 and 7, a(n) is the square of a Fibonacci number.

%F From _Colin Barker_, Sep 30 2016: (Start) (based on the signature given in the link}

%F a(n) = 2*a(n-1)+2*a(n-2)-a(n-3) for n>10.

%F G.f.: x*(2-x-6*x^2-7*x^3-6*x^4+x^5-37*x^6-29*x^7+14*x^8+x^9) / ((1+x)*(1-3*x+x^2)).

%F (End)

%F a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - a(n-2) - 2*(-1)^n for n >= 10. - _Greg Dresden_, May 18 2020

%e 440 = 8*55, 441 = 21^2, 442 = 13*34, so 441 is a term of the sequence.
