The hexasections of A262397(n) are

0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, ... = A000290(n)

0, 5, 19, 40, 69, 107, 152, ... = a(n)

0, 1, 5, 11, 18, 28, 40, ... = A240438(n+1)

1, 9, 25, 49, 81, 121, 169, ... = A016754(n)

0, 2, 7, 13, 21, 32, 44, ... = A262523(n)

3, 13, 32, 59, 93, 136, 187, ... = e(n+1).

The five-step recurrence in FORMULA is valuable for the six sequences.

Consider a(n) extended from right to left with their first two differences:

..., 59, 32, 13, 3, 0, 5, 19, 40, 69, ...

..., -27, -19, -10, -3, 5, 14, 21, 29, 38, ...

..., 8, 9, 7, 8, 9, 7, 8, 9, 7, ... .

From 0,the first row is

1) from right to left: e(n)

2) from left to right: a(n).

a(n) and e(n) are companions.

The third row is of period 3.

The last digit of a(n) is of period 15; the same is true of e(n).

Formula

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-3) - 2*a(n-4) - a(n-5), n> 4.

a(n) = A016742(n) + A042965(n).

a(-n) = e(n).

a(-n) + a(n) = 8*n^2.

a(n+2) - 2*a(n+1) + a(n) = period 3:repeat 9, 7, 8.

a(n+3) - a(n-3) = 8*(1 + 6*n).

a(n+7) - a(n-7) = 40*(2 + 3*n).

a(2n+1) = -a(2n) + 6*n + 3.

a(2n+2) = -a(2n+1) + 4*(n+1).

a(3n) = 4*n*(9*n+1) = 8*A022267(n), a(3n+1) = 36*n^2 +28*n +5, a(3n+2) = 36*n^2 +52*n +19.
