COMMENTS
See A341688 for a description of the ellipse.
Curiously the only ellipses found that have vertices with three or more lines crossing that are not on the x or y axes are those with a number of vertices equal to a multiple of ten.
The terms are from numeric computation - no formula for a(n) is currently known.
