Comments

The g.f.s formed from a(2*n)^(1/2) and (a(2*n+1)/5)^(1/2) are:

A243946: sqrt( (1+x + sqrt(1-18*x+x^2)) / (2*(1-18*x+x^2)) );

A243947: sqrt( (1+x - sqrt(1-18*x+x^2)) / (10*x*(1-18*x+x^2)) ).

Lim_{n->infinity} a(n+1)/a(n) = 9 + 4*sqrt(5).

Diagonal of rational function 1/(1 - (x + y + x*z + y*z + x*y*z)). - Gheorghe Coserea, Aug 24 2018

Formula

G.f.: Sum_{n>=0} binomial(2*n, n)^2 * x^n / (1-x)^(2*n+1).

G.f.: 1 / AGM(1-x, sqrt(1-18*x+x^2)), where AGM(x,y) = AGM((x+y)/2,sqrt(x*y)) is the arithmetic-geometric mean.

a(2*n) = A243946(n)^2.

a(2*n+1) = 5 * A243947(n)^2.

Recurrence: n^2*(2*n-3)*a(n) = (2*n-1)*(19*n^2 - 38*n + 14)*a(n-1) - (2*n-3)*(19*n^2 - 38*n + 14)*a(n-2) + (n-2)^2*(2*n-1)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 18 2014

a(n) ~ (2+sqrt(5)) * (9+4*sqrt(5))^n / (4*Pi*n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 18 2014. Equivalently, a(n) ~ phi^(6*n + 3) / (4*Pi*n), where phi = A001622 is the golden ratio. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 08 2021

a(n) = hypergeom([1/2, -n, n + 1], [1, 1], -4). - Peter Luschny, Mar 14 2018

G.f. y=A(x) satisfies: 0 = x*(x^2 - 1)*(x^2 - 18*x + 1)*y'' + (3*x^4 - 34*x^3 - 38*x^2 + 38*x - 1)*y' + (x^3 - 3*x^2 - 19*x + 5)*y. - Gheorghe Coserea, Aug 29 2018

From Peter Bala, Feb 07 2022: (Start)

a(n) = P(n,sqrt(5))^2, where P(n,x) denotes the n-th Legendre polynomial.

The Gauss congruences a(n*p^k) == a(n*p^(k-1)) ( mod p^k ) hold for all primes p and positive integers n and k. (End)
