%N Concentric 20-gonal numbers.

%C Concentric icosagonal numbers.

%C Sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 20, ..., and the same line from 1, in the direction 1, 41, ..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized dodecagonal numbers A195162. Main axis, perpendicular to A124080 in the same spiral.

%F From _Vincenzo Librandi_, Sep 27 2011: (Start)

%F a(n) = 5*n^2 + 2*(-1)^n-2;

%F a(n) = -a(n-1) + 10*n^2 - 10*n + 1. (End)

%F G.f.: x*(1+18*x+x^2)/((1+x)*(1-x)^3). - _Bruno Berselli_, Sep 27 2011

%F Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = Pi^2/120 + tan(Pi/sqrt(5))*Pi/(8*sqrt(5)). - _Amiram Eldar_, Jan 17 2023
