FORMULA

a(n)= S(n, 171)=U(n, 171/2)= S(2*n+1, sqrt(173))/sqrt(173) with S(n, x)=U(n, x/2) Chebyshev's polynomials of the second kind, A049310. S(-1, x)= 0 = U(-1, x).

a(n)=171*a(n-1)-a(n-2), n >= 1; a(0)=1, a(1)=171; a(-1):=0.

a(n)=(ap^(n+1) - am^(n+1))/(ap-am) with ap := (171+13*sqrt(173))/2 and am := (171-13*sqrt(173))/2 = 1/ap.

G.f.: 1/(1-171*x+x^2).
