FORMULA
a(n) = (1/6)*(50*n^3 - 60*n^2 + 16*n) = (1/3)*n*(5*n-2)*(5*n-4).
From Jaume Oliver Lafont, Sep 08 2009: (Start)
a(n) = (5*(n-1) + 1)*(5*(n-1) + 3)*(5*(n-1) + 5)/15.
G.f.: x*(1 + 28*x + 21*x^2)/(1-x)^4. (End)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 3*sqrt((25-2*sqrt(5))/5)*Pi/16 + 9*sqrt(5)*log(phi)/16 - 15*log(5)/32, where phi is the golden ratio (A001622). - Amiram Eldar, Sep 20 2022
