COMMENT

If we define C(n) with C(0)=I then Im(C(n))=1/F(2n+1) where F(k) are the Fibonacci numbers.

C(n) = (F(n)+F(n-1)*C(0))/(F(n+1)+F(n)*C(0)) = (F(n)*(F(n+1)+16*F(n-1))+(-1)^n*4*I)/(F(n+1)^2+16*F(n)^2).

FORMULA

a(n) = 16 F(n)^2 + F(n+1)^2, where F(n) = A000045(n) is the n-th Fibonacci number.

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := 16Fibonacci[n]^2+Fibonacci[n+1]^2
