COMMENT

a(n+1)/a(n) converges to (137+sqrt(18773))/2 = 137.00729888121410965... a(0)/a(1) = 2/137; a(1)/a(2) = 137/18771; a(2)/a(3) = 18771/2571764; a(3)/a(4) = 2571764/352350439; ... etc. Lim a(n)/a(n+1) as n approaches infinity = 0.00729888121410965... = 2/(137+sqrt(18773)) = (sqrt(18773)-137)/2.

FORMULA

a(n) =137a(n-1) + a(n-2), starting with a(0) = 2 and a(1) = 137, a(n) = ((137+sqrt(18773))/2)^n + ((137-sqrt(18773))/2)^n, (a(n))^2 =a(2n)-2 if n=1, 3, 5..., (a(n))^2 =a(2n)+2 if n=2, 4, 6....

G.f.: (2-137*x)/(1-137*x-x^2). [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Nov 23 2008]

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 352350439 = 137a(3) + a(2) = 137*2571764+ 18771 = ((137+sqrt(18773))/2)^4 + ( (137-sqrt(18773))/2)^4 = 352350438.999999997161916 + 0.000000002838083 = 352350439.
