In the tiling {5,3,4} of 3-dimensional hyperbolic space, the number of regular dodecahedra with right angles of the n generation which are contained in an eighth of space (intersection of three pairwise perpendicular hyperplanes which are supported by the faces of a dodecahedron at a vertex).
Let beta be the greatest real root of the polynomial which is defined by the above recurrent equation. Consider the representation of positive numbers in the basis beta. Then the language which consists of the maximal representations of positive numbers is neither regular nor context-free (M. Margenstern's theorem, see second reference, above).

FORMULA
|
a(n+3) = 9*a(n+2) - 9*a(n+1) + a(n); initial values: a(0) = 1, a(1) = 9, a(2) = 72
a(n) = sum(S(k, 8), k=0..n) with S(k, x)=U(k, x/2) Chebyshev's polynomials of the second kind.
G.f.: 1/((1-x)*(1-8*x+x^2)) = 1/(1-9*x+9*x^2-x^3).
a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - a(n-2) +1; a(-1)=0, a(0)=1.
a(n) = (S(n+1, 8)-S(n, 8) -1)/6, n>=0.
a(n) = -1/6+(7/12)*(4-sqrt(15))^n-(3/20)*(4-sqrt(15))^n*sqrt(15)+(7/12)*(4+sqrt(15))^n+(3/20) *sqrt(15)*(4+sqrt(15))^n. - Paolo P. Lava, Jun 25 2008
