COMMENT

In A094429 the multiplier is [1 1 1] instead of [1 0 0]. The matrix M is derived from the 3rd order Lucas polynomial x^3 - 7x^2 + 14x - 7, with a convergent of the series = 3.801937735...= (2 Sin 3Pi/7)^2; (an eigenvalue of the matrix and a root of the polynomial).

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 1078 since M^4 * [1 0 0] = [49 245 1078] = [a(2), a(3), a(4)].
