FORMULA

G.f.: 1 + 4*Sum_{n>=1} Pell(n)*Chi(n,3)*n*x^n/(1 - A002203(n)*(-x)^n + (-1)^n*x^(2*n)), where A002203(n) = Pell(n-1) + Pell(n+1).

EXAMPLE

G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 4*x + 8*x^2 + 20*x^3 + 240*x^4 + 696*x^5 + 280*x^6 + ...

where A(x) = 1 + 1*4*x + 2*4*x^2 + 5*4*x^3 + 12*20*x^4 + 29*24*x^5 + 70*4*x^6 + ... + Pell(n)*A034896(n)*x^n + ...

The g.f. is also given by the identity:

A(x) = 1 + 4*( 1*1*x/(1+2*x-x^2) + 2*2*x^2/(1-6*x^2+x^4) + 12*4*x^4/(1-34*x^4+x^8) + 29*5*x^5/(1+82*x^5-x^10) + 169*7*x^7/(1+478*x^7-x^14) + 408*8*x^8/(1-1154*x^8+x^16) + ...).

The values of the Dirichlet character Chi(n,3) repeat [1,1,0,...].
