The corresponding y solutions are y2(n) = A307173(n).
The proper positive solutions (x2(n), y2(n)) are given in matrix notation by R(0)*R(2)*Auto(n)*R^{-1}(4)*R^{-1}(-1)*R^{-1}(3)*(1, 0)^T (T for transposed), with the R-matrix R(t) = Matrix([[0, -1],[1, t]]), its inverse R^{-1}(t) = Matrix([t, 1],[-1, 0]), and the automorphic matrix Auto = Matrix([2, 9],[3, 14]). The matrix power Auto^n is given in A307168 in terms of Chebyshev polynomials S(n, x=16) = A077412(n).

FORMULA

G.f.: x*(4 - 11*x)/(1 - 16*x + x^2).
a(n) = 11*S(n, 16) - 172*S(n-1, 16) for n >= 1, with S(n, 16) = A077412(n).
a(n) = sqrt(9 + 7*A307173(n)^2) for n >= 1.
