COMMENT

Limiting ratio after n=30 terms is 2.369205407038926.

With a(0)=0, this is a divisibility sequence with g.f. x(1-x^2)/(1-x-3x^2-x^3+x^4). The limiting ratio is the largest zero of 1-x-3x^2-x^3+x^4. [From T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Dec 22 2008]

FORMULA

a(n)=Product[1 + 4*Cos[k*Pi/n]^2 + 16*Cos[k*Pi/n]^4, {k, 1, (n - 1)/2}]]]
