COMMENT

If the number j = A002378(m) is promic ( = i(i+1)), then a(n) = a(n-1)+j*a(n-2),a(0) = a(1) = 1 has a closed form solution involving only powers of integers. The binomial coefficient sum solves the recurrence regardless of promicity (cf. GKP reference)

FORMULA

a(n)=a(n-1)+42a(n-2); a(0)=a(1)=1. a(n)=[7^(n+1) - (-6)^(n+1)]/13.
