COMMENTS

Sum of the entries in the last row of the 3 X 3 matrix M^n, where M={{1 0 0}{2 3 0 }{ 3 4 5}}.

Sum of the entries in the second row of M^n = A048473(n).

FORMULA

a(n) = 9a(n-1) - 23a(n-2) + 15a(n-3), a(0)=1,a(1)=12,a(2)=83 (derived from the minimal polynomial of the matrix M).

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 2645 = 9*486 - 23*83 + 15*12 = 9*a(3) - 23*a(2) + 15*a(1).

a(4) = 2645 since M^4 * [1 1 1] = [1 161 2645], where 161 = A048473(4).

MAPLE

with(linalg): M[1]:=matrix(3, 3, [1, 0, 0, 2, 3, 0, 3, 4, 5]): for n from 2 to 23 do M[n]:=multiply(M[1], M[n-1]) od: 1, seq(multiply(M[n], matrix(3, 1, [1, 1, 1]))[3, 1], n=1..23);
