Formula
G.f.: (1 - x)/(1 - 36*x + x^2).
a(n) = a(-n-1) = 36*a(n-1) - a(n-2).
a(n) = ((19-sqrt(323))/38)*(1+(18+sqrt(323))^(2*n+1))/(18+sqrt(323))^n.
a(n+1) - a(n) = 34*A144128(n+1).
323*a(n+1)^2 - ((a(n+2)-a(n))/2)^2 = 34.
Sum_{n>0} 1/(a(n) - 1/a(n)) = 1/34.
See also Tanya Khovanova in Links field:
a(n) = 35*a(n-1) + 34*Sum_{i=0..n-2} a(i).
a(n+2)*a(n) - a(n+1)^2 = 36-2 = 34 = 34*1,
a(n+3)*a(n) - a(n+1)*a(n+2) = 36*(36-2) = 1224 = 34*36.
Generalizing:
a(n+4)*a(n) - a(n+1)*a(n+3) = 44030 = 34*1295,
a(n+5)*a(n) - a(n+1)*a(n+4) = 1583856 = 34*46584,
a(n+6)*a(n) - a(n+1)*a(n+5) = 56974786 = 34*1675729, etc.,
where 1, 36, 1295, 46584, 1675729, ... is the sequence A144128, which is the second bisection of A041611.
a(n)^2 - 36*a(n)*a(n+1) + a(n+1)^2 + 34 = 0 (see comments by Colin Barker in similar sequences).
