Comments

Equivalently, numbers k such that 32*k + 25 is a square. This means that 4*a(n) + 3 is a triangular number.

Interleaving of A139277 and A139272 (without 0).

Formula

O.g.f.: x^2*(3 + 10*x + 3*x^2)/((1 - x)^3*(1 + x)^2).

E.g.f.: (1 + 2*x - (1 - 8*x^2)*exp(2*x))*exp(-x)/4.

a(n) = a(-n+1) = a(n-1) + 2*a(n-2) - 2*a(n-3) - a(n-4) + a(n-5).

a(n) = (8*n*(n - 1) - (2*n - 1)*(-1)^n - 1)/4 = (2*n + (-1)^n - 1)*(4*n - 3*(-1)^n - 2)/4. Therefore, 3 and 13 are the only prime numbers in this sequence.

a(n) + a(n+1) = 4*n^2 for even n, otherwise a(n) + a(n+1) = 4*n^2 - 1.

From Amiram Eldar, Mar 18 2022: (Start)

Sum_{n>=2} 1/a(n) = 8/25 + (sqrt(2)-1)*Pi/5.

Sum_{n>=2} (-1)^n/a(n) = 8*log(2)/5 - sqrt(2)*log(2*sqrt(2)+3)/5 - 8/25. (End)
