COMMENTS
Inverse binomial transform of A000129(2n-1). a(n+2)/4 = A057087(n).
a(n) is the irrational part of circle radii in nested circles and squares inspired by Vitruvian Man, starting with a square whose sides are of length 4 (in some units). The radius of the circle is an integer in the real quadratic number field Q(sqrt(2)), namely R(n) = A(n-1) + B(m)*sqrt(2) with A(-1)=1, for n >= 1, A(n-1) = A170931(n-1)*-1^(n-1); and B(n) = A094013(n)*-1^n. See illustrations in the links. - Kival Ngaokrajang, Feb 15 2015

FORMULA
a(n) = (2 + 2*sqrt(2))^n*(1/2 - sqrt(2)/4) + (2 - 2*sqrt(2))^n*(1/2 + sqrt(2)/4).
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2); a(0)=1, a(1)=0. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 03 2008
a(n) = A057087(n) - 4*A057087(n-1). - R. J. Mathar, Jan 15 2013
From G. C. Greubel, Dec 04 2021: (Start)
a(n) = 2^n * A000129(n-1).
E.g.f.: exp(2*x)*( cosh(2*sqrt(2)*x) - (1/sqrt(2))*sinh(2*sqrt(2)*x) ). (End)
