Previous name was: The general form of the recurrences are the a(j), b(j) and n(j) solutions of the 2 equations problem: 13*n(j) + 1 = a(j)*a(j) and 15*n(j) + 1 = b(j)*b(j) with positive integer numbers.

Positive values of x (or y) satisfying x^2 - 28*x*y + y^2 + 26 = 0. - Colin Barker, Feb 23 2014

Formula

G.f.: (1 - x)/(1 - 28*x + x^2).

The a(j) recurrence is a(0)=1, a(1)=27, a(t+2) = 28*a(t+1) - a(t) resulting in terms 1, 27, 755, 21113, ... (this sequence).

The b(j) recurrence is b(0)=1, b(1)=29, b(t+2) = 28*b(t+1) - b(t) resulting in terms 1, 29, 811, 22679, ... (A159669).

The n(j) recurrence is n(0) = n(1) = 0, n(2) = 56, n(t+3) = 783*(n(t+2) -n(t+1)) + n(t) resulting in terms 0, 0, 56, 43848, 34289136, ... (A159673).

a(n) = (1/30)*(15-sqrt(195))*(1+(14+sqrt(195))^(2*n+1))/(14+sqrt(195))^n. - Bruno Berselli, Feb 25 2014

a(n) = 28*a(n-1) - a(n-2), a(0)=1, a(1)=27. - Harvey P. Dale, Apr 09 2014

a(n) = A097311(n) - A097311(n-1). - G. C. Greubel, Sep 26 2022
