Formula

a(n) = ((-1)^n)*S(2*n, 26*i) with the imaginary unit i and Chebyshev polynomials S(n, x) with coefficients shown in A049310.
G.f.: (1-x)/(1-678*x+x^2).
a(n) = S(n, 2*339) - S(n-1, 2*339) = T(2*n+1, sqrt(170))/sqrt(170), with Chebyshev polynomials of the 2nd and first kind. See A049310 for the triangle of S(n, x) = U(n, x/2) coefficients. S(-1, x) := 0 =: U(-1, x); and A053120 for the T-triangle.
a(n) = 678*a(n-1) - a(n-2), n>1; a(0)=1, a(1)=677. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 18 2008
