COMMENTS
The terms of this sequence can be constructed with the terms of sequence A086902. For the terms of the periodical sequence of the continued fraction for sqrt(53) see A010139. We observe that its period is five. The decimal expansion of sqrt(53) is A010506. - Johannes W. Meijer, Jun 12 2010

FORMULA
a(5*n) = A086902(3*n+1), a(5*n+1) = (A086902(3*n+2)-A086902(3*n+1))/2, a(5*n+2) = (A086902(3*n+2)+A086902(3*n+1))/2, a(5*n+3) = A086902(3*n+2) and a(5*n+4) = A086902(3*n+3)/2. - Johannes W. Meijer, Jun 12 2010
G.f.: -(x^9-7*x^8+22*x^7-29*x^6+51*x^5+182*x^4+51*x^3+29*x^2+22*x+7) / (x^10+364*x^5-1). - Colin Barker, Sep 26 2013
