FORMULA
a(n) = b(n)*(31*(a(n-1)/b(n-1)) + 8*sqrt(15*((a(n-1)/b(n-1))^2) + 1)) where b(n) = A180920(n).
From Colin Barker, Feb 19 2015: (Start)
a(n) = 3904*a(n-1) - 238206*a(n-2) + 3904*a(n-3) - a(4).
G.f.: x*(x+1)*(x^2-1826*x+1) / ((x^2-3842*x+1)*(x^2-62*x+1)). (End)
a(n) = Sqrt(A240137(A180920(n))). - Ray Chandler, Jan 12 2024
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 2017*(31*(2079/33) + 8*sqrt(15*((2079/33)^2) + 1)).
