COMMENT

a(n)/a(n-1) tends to 2*sqrt(6) + 5 = 9.8989794855...

FORMULA

a(n) = 10*a(n-1), - a(n-2), n>1; given a(0) = 1, a(1) = 3. Term (1,1) in X^n where X = the 2x2 matrix [3,4; 5,7].

a(n) = (-1/12)*[5+2*sqrt(6)]^n*sqrt(6)+(1/12)*sqrt(6)*[5-2*sqrt(6)]^n+(1/2)*[5+2*sqrt(6)]^n+(1 /2)*[5-2*sqrt(6)]^n, with n >= 0 - Paolo P. Lava (ppl(AT)spl.at), Jun 06 2008

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 287 = 10*a(2) - a(1) = 10*29 - 3.

a(3) = 287 = term (1,1) in X^3.
