%N Numerators of continued fraction convergents to sqrt(15).

%H Vincenzo Librandi, <a href="/A041022/b041022.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..200</a>

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_04">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (0,8,0,-1).

%F G.f.: (3+4*x+3*x^2-x^3)/(1-8*x^2+x^4).

%F From _Gerry Martens_, Jul 11 2015: (Start)

%F Interspersion of 2 sequences [a0(n),a1(n)] for n>0:

%F a0(n) = (-((4-sqrt(15))^n*(3+sqrt(15)))+(-3+sqrt(15))*(4+sqrt(15))^n)/2.

%F a1(n) = ((4-sqrt(15))^n+(4+sqrt(15))^n)/2. (End)

%t Numerator[Convergents[Sqrt[15], 30]] (* _Vincenzo Librandi_, Oct 28 2013 *)

%t a0[n_] := (-((4-Sqrt[15])^n*(3+Sqrt[15]))+(-3+Sqrt[15])*(4+Sqrt[15])^n)/2 // Simplify

%t a1[n_] := ((4-Sqrt[15])^n+(4+Sqrt[15])^n)/2 // Simplify
