COMMENT

(-15,a(1)) and (A129992(n), a(n+1)) are solutions (x, y) to the Diophantine equation x^2+(x+127)^2 = y^2.

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-3) = 3+2*sqrt(2).

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = (129+16*sqrt(2))/127 for n mod 3 = {0, 2}.

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = (34947+21922*sqrt(2))/127^2 for n mod 3 = 1.

FORMULA

a(n) = 6*a(n-3)-a(n-6)for n > 6; a(1)=113, a(2)=127, a(3)=145, a(4)=533, a(5)=635, a(6)=757.

G.f.: (1-x)*(113+240*x+385*x^2+240*x^3+113*x^4) / (1-6*x^3+x^6).

a(3*k-1) = 127*A001653(k) for k >= 1.

EXAMPLE

(-15, a(1)) = (-15, 113) is a solution: (-15)^2+(-15+127)^2 = 225+12544 = 12769 = 113^2.

(A129992(1), a(2)) = (0, 127) is a solution: 0^2+(0+127)^2 = 16129 = 127^2.

(A129992(3), a(4)) = (308, 533) is a solution: 308^2+(308+127)^2 = 94864+189225 = 284089 = 533^2.

PROGRAM

(PARI) {forstep(n=-16, 500000000, [1, 3], if(issquare(2*n^2+254*n+16129, &k), print1(k, ", ")))}
