%N A266506 a(n) = 2*a(n-4) + a(n-8) for n >= 8.
%C A266506 Previous name was: a(2n) = a(2n - 4) + a(2n - 3) and a(2n + 1) = 2*a(2n - 4) + a(2n - 3), with a(0) = 2, a(1) = -1, a(2) = 2, a(3) = 1. Alternatively, interleave denominators (A266504) and numerators (A266505) of convergents to sqrt(2).
%C A266506 a(2n) gives all x in N | 2*x^2 - 7(-1)^x = y^2. a(2n+1) gives associated y values.
