Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..200
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (340,-1).
FORMULA
a(n+2) = 340*a(n+1) - a(n).
a(n+1) = 170*a(n) + 39*sqrt(19*(a(n))^2 + 81).
G.f.: 351*z/(1 - 340*z + z^2).
a(n) = (9*sqrt(19))/38*(170 + 39*sqrt(19))^n + (-9*sqrt(19))/38*(170 - 39*sqrt(19))^n.
MAPLE
w(0):=0:for n from 0 to 20 do w(n+1):=170*w(n)+39*sqrt(19*(w(n))^2+81) :od: seq(w(n), n=0..20); for n from 0 to 20 do u(n):=simplify((9*sqrt(19))/38*(170+39*sqrt(19))^(n)+(-9*sqrt(19))/38*(170-39*sqrt(19))^(n)):od:seq(u(n), n=0..20); taylor(((351*z)/(1-340*z+z^2)), z=0, 21); A167709
