For every n=2k the triple (a(2k-1)^2, a(2k)^2 , a(2k+1)^2) is an arithmetic progression, i.e., 2*a(2k)^2 = a(2k-1)^2 + a(2k+1)^2.
In general a triple((x-y)^2,z^2,(x+y)^2) is an arithmetic progression if and only if x^2+y^2=z^2.
The first differences of this sequence is the interleaved sequence 6,42,24,60,42,78.... = 9*n*(39-27*(-1)^n)/2.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-2*a(n-3)+a(n-4).
G.f.: (17-11*x+19*x^2-7*x^3)/((1+x)*(1-x)^3).
a(n) = (6*n*(3*n+10)+27*(-1)^n+41)/4.
2*a(2n)^2 = a(2n-1)^2 + a(2n+1)^2.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
For n = 7, a(7)=2*a(6)-2*a(4)+a(3)=2*269-2*149+89=329.
