%F G.f.: (1 + x)/(1 - 66*x + x^2).

%F a(n) = 66*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n>=1, a(-1)=-1, a(0)=1.

%F a(n) = S(2*n, 2*sqrt(17)) = -i*((-1)^n)*T(2*n+1, 4*i)/4 = S(n, 66) + S(n-1, 66) with i^2=-1 and S(n, x), resp. T(n, x), Chebyshev's polynomials of the second, resp. first, kind. See A049310 and A053120.

%F a(n) = A041024(2*n)/4.

%F a(n) = (1/4)*sinh((2*n + 1)*arcsinh(4)). - _Bruno Berselli_, Apr 03 2018
