COMMENTS
Also numbers n such that the sum of the hexagonal numbers H(n) and H(n+1) is equal to m^2 + (m+1)^2 for some m. - Colin Barker, Dec 10 2014
Also nonnegative integers x in the solutions to 4*x^2-2*y^2+2*x-2*y = 0, the corresponding values of y being A251867. - Colin Barker, Dec 10 2014
FORMULA
For n>1, a(n) = A089928(n*4-5).
From Bruno Berselli, Apr 12 2013: (Start)
G.f.: 2*x^2*(5-x)/((1-x)*(1-34*x+x^2)).
a(n) = ((1+sqrt(2))^(4n-3)+(1-sqrt(2))^(4n-3)-2)/8.
a(n+2) = 10*A029546(n)-2*A029546(n-1). (End)
a(n) = 35*a(n-1)-35*a(n-2)+a(n-3). - Colin Barker, Dec 10 2014
a(n) = A251867(n) - A001542(n-1)^2. - Alexander Samokrutov, Sep 05 2015
EXAMPLE
a(3) = A089928(7) = 348.
