Comments

a(n)/a(n-1) tends to 2.1486... = 1 + 2^(1/5), the real root of the polynomial x^5 - 5*x^4 + 10*x^3 - 10*x^2 + 5*x - 3.

If x^5 = 2 and n >= 0, then there are unique integers a, b, c, d, g such that (1 + x)^n = a + b*x + c*x^2 + d*x^3 + g*x^4. The coefficient a is a(n) (from A052102). - Alexander Samokrutov, Jul 11 2015

If x=a(n), y=a(n+1), z=a(n+2), s=a(n+3), t=a(n+4) then x, y, z, s, t satisfies Diophantine equation (see link). - Alexander Samokrutov, Jul 11 2015
