Formula

a(n) = S(n, 227) + S(n-1, 227) = S(2*n, sqrt(229)), with S(n, x)=U(n, x/2) Chebyshev's polynomials of the second kind, A049310. S(-1, x) = 0 = U(-1, x). S(n, 227)=A098245(n).

a(n) = (-2/15)*i*((-1)^n)*T(2*n+1, 15*i/2) with the imaginary unit i and Chebyshev's polynomials of the first kind. See the T-triangle A053120.

G.f.: (1+x)/(1-227*x+x^2).

a(n) = 227*a(n-1) - a(n-2), n > 1; a(0)=1, a(1)=228. [Philippe Deléham, Nov 18 2008]
