FORMULA
a(n) = (15*n^2 - 15*n + 2)/2.
a(n) = 15*n+a(n-1)-15 (with a(1)=1). - Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 08 2010
G.f.: -x*(1+13*x+x^2) / (x-1)^3. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 04 2011
Binomial transform of [1, 15, 15, 0, 0, 0, ...] and Narayana transform (A001263) of [1, 15, 0, 0, 0, ...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 28 2011
a(n) = A194715(n-1) + 1. - Omar E. Pol, Oct 03 2011
From Amiram Eldar, Jun 21 2020: (Start)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 2*Pi*tan(sqrt(7/15)*Pi/2)/sqrt(105).
Sum_{n>=1} a(n)/n! = 17*e/2 - 1.
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^n * a(n)/n! = 17/(2*e) - 1. (End)
E.g.f.: exp(x)*(1 + 15*x^2/2) - 1. - Nikolaos Pantelidis, Feb 07 2023
EXAMPLE
a(5) = 151 because (15*5^2 - 15*5 + 2)/2 = 151.
