COMMENT

a(1..4)=(2,4,19,29); a(n>4)=6*a(n-2)-a(n-4)+2. [From Ctibor O. Zizka (c.zizka(AT)email.cz), Nov 10 2009]

FORMULA

{k: 6+k*(k+1)/2 in A000290}

Conjecture: a(n)= +a(n-1) +6*a(n-2) -6*a(n-3) -a(n-4) +a(n-5).

Conjecture: G.f.: x*(-2-2*x-3*x^2+2*x^3+3*x^4)/((x-1)* (x^2-2*x-1)* (x^2+2*x-1)) = =(6+(-1-4*x)/(x^2+2*x-1)+(6+13*x)/(x^2-2*x-1)+1/(x-1))/2.

EXAMPLE

2*(2+1)/2+6 = 3^2. 4*(4+1)/2+6 = 4^2. 19*(19+1)/2+6 = 14^2. 29*(29+1)/2+6 = 21^2.
