COMMENTS
(-24, a(1)) and (A130608(n), a(n+1)) are solutions (x, y) to the Diophantine equation x^2+(x+167)^2 = y^2.
Lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-3) = 3+2*sqrt(2).
Lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = (171+26*sqrt(2))/167 for n mod 3 = {0, 2}.
Lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = (56211+34510*sqrt(2))/167^2 for n mod 3 = 1.
For the generic case x^2+(x+p)^2 = y^2 with p = m^2 - 2 a prime number in A028871, m >= 5, the x values are given by the sequence defined by: a(n) = 6*a(n-3) - a(n-6) + 2*p with a(1)=0, a(2) = 2*m + 2, a(3) = 3*m^2 - 10*m + 8, a(4) = 3*p, a(5) = 3*m^2 + 10*m + 8, a(6) = 20*m^2 - 58*m + 42. Y values are given by the sequence defined by: b(n) = 6*b(n-3) - b(n-6) with b(1) = p, b(2) = m^2 + 2*m + 2, b(3) = 5*m^2 - 14*m + 10, b(4) = 5*p, b(5) = 5*m^2 + 14*m + 10, b(6) = 29*m^2 - 82*m + 58. - Mohamed Bouhamida, Sep 09 2009

FORMULA
a(n) = 6*a(n-3) - a(n-6) for n > 6; a(1)=145, a(2)=167, a(3)=197, a(4)=673, a(5)=835, a(6)=1037.
G.f.: (1-x)*(145+312*x+509*x^2+312*x^3+145*x^4) / (1-6*x^3+x^6).
a(3*k-1) = 167*A001653(k) for k >= 1.
EXAMPLE
(-24, a(1)) = (-24, 145) is a solution: (-24)^2 + (-24+167)^2 = 576 + 20449 = 21025 = 145^2.
(A130608(1), a(2)) = (0, 167) is a solution: 0^2 + (0+167)^2 = 27889 = 167^2.
(A130608(3), a(4)) = (385, 673) is a solution: 385^2 + (385+167)^2 = 148225 + 304704 = 452929 = 673^2.
