%N Numbers n such that the sum of the pentagonal numbers P(n), P(n+1), P(n+2) and P(n+3) is equal to the heptagonal number H(m) for some m.

%C Also positive integers x in the solutions to 12*x^2-5*y^2+32*x+3*y+36 = 0, the corresponding values of y being A252770.

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_03">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (63,-63,1).

%F a(n) = 63*a(n-1)-63*a(n-2)+a(n-3).

%F G.f.: 2*x*(7*x-47) / ((x-1)*(x^2-62*x+1)).

%F a(n) = 2*(-2/3+1/240*(31+8*sqrt(15))^(-n)*(80-27*sqrt(15)+(31+8*sqrt(15))^(2*n)*(80+27*sqrt(15)))). - _Colin Barker_, Mar 03 2016

%e 94 is in the sequence because P(94)+P(95)+P(96)+P(97) = 13207+13490+13776+14065 = 54538 = H(148).
