%N A (1, -2) Somos-4 sequence associated to the elliptic curve E: y^2 - 3*x*y - y = x^3 - x.
%C a(n) is (-1)^C(n,2) times the Hankel transform of the sequence with g.f. 1/(1-x^2/(1+2x^2/(1+(1/4)x^2/(1-14x^2/(1-(16/49)x^2/(1-... where 0/1, -2/1, -1/4, 14/1, 16/49, ... are the x-coordinates of the multiples of z=(0, 0) on E.
%C This is a strong elliptic divisibility sequence t_n as given in [Kimberling, p. 16] where x = 1, y = 2, z = 1. - _Michael Somos_, Aug 06 2014
