COMMENTS
a(n)^2 - 42 (2*b(n))^2 = +1 with b(n):=A097309(n) gives all nonnegative solutions of this D:= 42*4 = 168 Pell equation.
Numbers n such that 42*(n^2-1) is a square. - Vincenzo Librandi, Nov 17 2010
Except for the first term, positive values of x (or y) satisfying x^2 - 26xy + y^2 + 168 = 0. - Colin Barker, Feb 20 2014

FORMULA
a(n) = 26*a(n-1) - a(n-2), a(-1) := 13, a(0)=1.
a(n) = T(n, 13) = (S(n, 26) - S(n-2, 26))/2 = S(n, 26) - 13*S(n-1, 26) with T(n, x), resp. S(n, x), Chebyshev's polynomials of the first, resp. second, kind. See A053120 and A049310. S(n, 26)=A097309(n).
a(n) = (ap^n + am^n)/2 with ap := 13+2*sqrt(42) and am := 13-2*sqrt(42).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} ((-1)^k)*(n/(2*(n-k)))*binomial(n-k, k)*(2*13)^(n-2*k), n >= 1.
G.f.: (1 - 13*x)/(1 - 26*x + x^2).
a(n) = sqrt(1 + 168*A097309(n)^2), n >= 0.
a(n) = cosh(2n*arcsinh(sqrt(6))). - Herbert Kociemba, Apr 24 2008
