COMMENTS

Second member of the Diophantine pair (b(n), a(n)) that satisfies a(n)^2 + a(n) = 8*(b(n)^2 + b(n)) or T(a(n)) = 8*T(b(n)) where T(x) is the triangular number of x. The T(a)'s are in A336626, the T(b)'s are in A336624 and the b's are in A336623.
Can be defined for negative n by setting a(-n) = -a(n+1) - 1 for all n in Z.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = 34*a(n-2) - a(n-4) + 16, for n>=2 with a(2)=15, a(1)=0, a(0)=-1, a(-1)=-16.
a(n) = a(n-1) + 34*a(n-2) - 34*a(n-3) - a(n-4) + a(n-5), for n>=3 with a(3)=32, a(2)=15, a(1)=0, a(0)=-1, a(-1)=-16.
a(n) = (-1 + sqrt(8*b(n) + 1))/2, where b(n) is A336626(n).
G.f.: x^2*(15 + 17*x - 15*x^2 - x^3) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 6*x + x^2)*(1 + 6*x + x^2)). - Colin Barker, Aug 14 2020
a(n) = ((sqrt(2) + 1)^(2*n+1) * (3 - sqrt(2)*(-1)^n) - (sqrt(2) - 1)^(2*n+1) * (3 + sqrt(2)*(-1)^n) - 2)/4. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 08 2020
From Vladimir Pletser, Feb 21 2021: (Start)
a(n) = ((3 - sqrt(2))*(1 + sqrt(2))^(2*n+1) + (3 + sqrt(2))*(1 - sqrt(2))^(2*n+1))/4 - 1/2 for even n.
a(n) = ((3 + sqrt(2))*(1 + sqrt(2))^(2*n+1) + (3 - sqrt(2))*(1 - sqrt(2))^(2*n+1))/4 - 1/2 for odd n. (End)

EXAMPLE
|
a(3) = 34*a(1) - a(-1) + 16 = 0 - (-16) + 16 = 32,
a(4) = 34*a(2) - a(0) + 16 = 34*15 - (-1) + 16 = 527, etc.
