Index entries for sequences related to Chebyshev polynomials.

FORMULA

a(n) = (-i*sqrt(2))^(n-1) U(n-1, i*sqrt(2)) where U is the Chebyshev polynomial of the second kind and i^2 = -1.

a(n) = ((2+sqrt(6))^n - (2-sqrt(6))^n)/(2 sqrt(6)). [From Al Hakanson (hawkuu(AT)gmail.com), Jan 05 2009, Jan 07 2009]
