%N Product of Pell and Catalan numbers: a(n) = A000129(n+1)*A000108(n).

%C Radius of convergence: r = (sqrt(2)-1)/4, where A(r) = sqrt(2+sqrt(2)).

%C More generally, given {S} such that: S(n) = b*S(n-1) + c*S(n-2), |b|>0, |c|>0, then Sum_{n>=0} S(n)*Catalan(n)*x^n = sqrt( (1-2*b*x - sqrt(1-4*b*x-16*c*x^2))/(2*b^2+8*c) )/x.

%H Harvey P. Dale, <a href="/A098616/b098616.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000</a>

%F G.f.: A(x) = sqrt( (1-4*x - sqrt(1-8*x-16*x^2))/16 )/x.

%F Run lengths of zeros (mod 10) equal (5^k - (-1)^k)/2 - 1 starting at index (5^k + (-1)^k)/2:

%F a(n) == 0 (mod 10) for n = (5^k + (-1)^k)/2 through n = 5^k - 1 when k>=1.

%F a(n) ~ 2^(2*n-3/2) * (1+sqrt(2))^(n+1) / (sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, May 09 2014

%F A(-x) = 1/x * series reversion( x*(2*x + sqrt(1 - 4*x^2)) ). Compare with the o.g.f. B(x) of the central binomial numbers A000984, which satisfies B(-x) = 1/x * series reversion( x*(2*x + sqrt(1 + 4*x^2)) ). See also A214377. - _Peter Bala_, Oct 19 2015

%F n*(n+1)*a(n) -4*n*(2*n-1)*a(n-1) -4*(2*n-1)*(2*n-3)*a(n-2)=0. - _R. J. Mathar_, Nov 17 2018

%F Sum_{n>=0} a(n)/16^n = 2*sqrt(3-sqrt(7)). - _Amiram Eldar_, May 05 2023

%e Sequence begins: [1*1, 2*1, 5*2, 12*5, 29*14, 70*42, 169*132, 408*429,...].
