x(n) := 2*a(n) and y(n) := A007805(n), n >= 0, give all the positive solutions of the Pell equation x^2 - 5*y^2 = -1.
The Gregory V. Richardson formula follows from this. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jun 20 2013
Define a binary operation o on the real numbers by x o y = x*sqrt(1 + y^2) + y*sqrt(1 + x^2). The operation o is commutative and associative with identity 0. Then we have
2*a(n) = 2 o 2 o ... o 2 (2*n+1 terms). For example, 2 o 2 = 4*sqrt(5) and 2 o 2 o 2 = 2 o 4*sqrt(5) = 38 = 2*a(1). Cf. A084068.
a(n) = U(2*n+1) where U(n) is the Lehmer sequence [Lehmer, 1930] defined by the recurrence U(n) = sqrt(20)*U(n-1) - U(n-2) with U(0) = 0 and U(1) = 1. The solution to the recurrence is U(n) = (1/4)*( (sqrt(5) + 2)^n - (sqrt(5) - 2)^n ). (End)

FORMULA

a(n) ~ (1/4)*(sqrt(5) + 2)^(2*n+1). - Joe Keane (jgk(AT)jgk.org), May 15 2002
For all members x of the sequence, 20*x^2 + 5 is a square. Lim_{n -> inf} a(n)/a(n-1) = 9 + 2*sqrt(20) = 9 + 4*sqrt(5). The 20 can be seen to derive from the statement "20*x^2 + 5 is a square". - Gregory V. Richardson, Oct 12 2002
a(n) = (((9 + 4*sqrt(5))^n - (9 - 4*sqrt(5))^n) + ((9 + 4*sqrt(5))^(n-1) - (9 - 4*sqrt(5))^(n-1)) / (8*sqrt(5)). - Gregory V. Richardson, Oct 12 2002
G.f.: (1+x)/(1 - 18x + x^2).
a(n) = 18*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n>1; a(0)=1, a(1)=19. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 17 2008
a(n) = ( Fibonacci(6*n + 6 - 2*k) + Fibonacci(6*n + 2*k) )/( Fibonacci(6 - 2*k) + Fibonacci(2*k) ), for k an arbitrary integer.
a(n) = ( Fibonacci(6*n + 6 - 2*k - 1) - Fibonacci(6*n + 2*k + 1) )/( Fibonacci(6 - 2*k - 1) - Fibonacci(2*k + 1) ), for k an arbitrary integer, k != 1.
The aerated sequence (b(n))n>=1 = [1, 0, 19, 0, 341, 0, 6119, 0, ...] is a fourth-order linear divisibility sequence; that is, if n | m then b(n) | b(m). It is the case P1 = 0, P2 = -16, Q = -1 of the 3-parameter family of divisibility sequences found by Williams and Guy. See A100047 for the connection with Chebyshev polynomials. (End)
a(n) = sqrt(5 * Fibonacci(3 + 6*n)^2 - 4)/4. - Gerry Martens, Jul 25 2016
a(n) = 1/4*( (sqrt(5) + 2)^(2*n+1) - (sqrt(5) - 2)^(2*n+1) ).
a(n) = 9*a(n-1) + 2*sqrt(5 + 20*a(n-1)^2).
a(n) = (1/2)*sinh((2*n + 1)*arcsinh(2)). (End)
