%N Shallit sequence S(8,55): a(n) = floor(a(n-1)^2/a(n-2) + 1).

%C Agrees with A019484 for terms 0 through 11055 but then differs from it. It is not known if S(8,55) satisfies a linear recurrence.

%C a(11056) = 4971494197...7586894095 (9270 digits) = A019484(11056) + 1. - _Jianing Song_, Oct 15 2021
