COMMENT
|
Imaginary part of the sequence of complex numbers defined by c(0) = 1, c(1) = 1, for n>1 c(n) = c(n-1) + i*c(n-2). - Gerald McGarvey (gerald.mcgarvey(AT)comcast.net), Apr 24 2005
a(n) = sqrt(3)*y where (x,y,y,y) is the quaternion b(n) of the sequence b of quaternions defined by b(0)=1,b(1)=1, b(n) = b(n-1) + b(n-2)*(0,s,s,s) where s = 1/sqrt(3). - Gerald McGarvey (gerald.mcgarvey(AT)comcast.net), Apr 25 2005
