COMMENT

Also gives solutions to the equation x^2-1=floor(x*r*floor(x/r)) where r=sqrt(6) - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Feb 14 2004

Appears to give all solutions >1 to the equation : x^2=ceiling(x*r*floor(x/r)) where r=sqrt(6). - Benoit Cloitre, Feb 24, 2004

(sqrt(2)+sqrt(3))^(2*n)=a(n)+A001078(n)*sqrt(6). - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Mar 12 2008

FORMULA

For all members x of the sequence, 6*x^2 -6 is a square. Lim. n-> Inf. a(n)/a(n-1) = 5 + 2*Sqrt(6). - Gregory V. Richardson (omomom(AT)hotmail.com), Oct 13 2002

a(n) = T(n, 5) = (S(n, 10)-S(n-2, 10))/2 with S(n, x) := U(n, x/2) and T(n), resp. U(n, x), are Chebyshev's polynomials of the first, resp. second, kind. See A053120 and A049310. S(n, 10)= A004189(n+1).

a(n) = sqrt(1+24*A004189(n)^2) (cf. Richardson comment).

a(n)a(n+3) - a(n+1)a(n+2) = 240. - R. Stephan, Jun 06 2005

Chebyshev's polynomials T(n,x) evaluated at x=5.

G.f.: (1-5*x)/(1-10*x+x^2). a(n)= ((5+2*sqrt(6))^n + (5-2*sqrt(6))^n)/2.

a(-n)=a(n).

a(n+1)=5*a(n)+2*(6*a(n)^2-6)^0.5 - Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr), Sep 19 2007

a(n+1) = 2*A054320(n) + 3*A138288(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Mar 12 2008

a(n) = Cosh[2n*ArcSinh[Sqrt[2]]] - Herbert Kociemba (kociemba(AT)t-online.de), Apr 24 2008

a(n)=(-1)^n Cos[2n ArcSin[Sqrt[3]]] [From Artur Jasinski (grafix(AT)csl.pl), Oct 29 2008]

A001079(n) = 142238(2n-1) = A041006(2n-1) = A041038(2n-1), for all n>0. [From M. F. Hasler (MHasler(AT)univ-ag.fr), Feb 14 2009]
