Silver mean chain substitution sequence: characteristic polynomial = -x^2+2*x+1.

A space-filling lattice is given by: bb = aa /. 1 -> {-0.4142135623730951, 2.414213562373095} /. 2 -> {1,-0.414213562373095`} /. 3 -> 0; ListPlot[FoldList[Plus, {0, 0}, bb], PlotRange -> All, PlotJoined -> False, Axes -> False];

The sequence is S_oo where S_0 = 2, S_1 = 1; S_{n+2} = S_{n+1} S_n S_{n+1}. Used to construct the "labyrinth" tiling. - N. J. A. Sloane, Mar 13 2019
