a(2*n+1) with b(2*n+1) := A005668(2*n+1), n>=0, give all (positive integer) solutions to Pell equation a^2 - 10*b^2 = -1, a(2*n) with b(2*n) := A005668(2*n), n>=1, give all (positive integer) solutions to Pell equation a^2 - 10*b^2 = +1 (cf. Emerson reference).
Bisection: a(2*n)= T(n,19)=A078986(n), n>=0 and a(2*n+1)=3*S(2*n,2*sqrt(10)),n>=0, with T(n,x), resp. S(n,x), Chebyshev's polynomials of the first,resp. second kind. See A053120, resp. A049310.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = 6a(n-1) + a(n-2).
G.f.: (1-3*x)/(1-6*x-x^2).
a(n) = ((-i)^n)*T(n, 3*i) with T(n, x) Chebyshev's polynomials of the first kind (see A053120) and i^2=-1.
Binomial transform of A084132. E.g.f. : exp(3x)cosh(sqrt(10)x); a(n)=((3+sqrt(10))^n+(3-sqrt(10))^n)/2; a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), C(n, 2k)10^k3^(n-2k)}. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Nov 15 2003
