COMMENTS
Also nonnegative integers y in the solutions to 6*x^2-y^2+4*x-y+2 = 0, the corresponding values of x being A122513.
FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1)+98*a(n-2)-98*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5).
G.f.: -x*(x+1)^2*(11*x^2+1) / ((x-1)*(x^2-10*x+1)*(x^2+10*x+1)).
EXAMPLE
113 is in the sequence because T(113) = 6441 = 3151+3290 = P(46)+P(47).
PROG
(PARI) Vec(-x*(x+1)^2*(11*x^2+1)/((x-1)*(x^2-10*x+1)*(x^2+10*x+1)) + O(x^100))
