COMMENTS
The identity (60*n^2 + 1)^2 - (900*n^2 + 30)*(2*n)^2 = 1 can be written as A158673(n)^2 - a(n)*A005843(n)^2 = 1.

FORMULA
G.f.: -30*(1 + 28*x + 31*x^2)/(x-1)^3.
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3).
From Amiram Eldar, Mar 20 2023: (Start)
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = (coth(Pi/sqrt(30))*Pi/sqrt(30) + 1)/60.
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = (cosech(Pi/sqrt(30))*Pi/sqrt(30) + 1)/60. (End)
