COMMENTS

Vector Markov sequence of quartic characteristic Pascal-Salem polynomial x^5-(x+1)^4.

The first three of the sequence of polynomials: x^n-(x+1)^(n-1) are Pisots, this one with two unitary absolute values is Salem r = Abs[Table[x /. NSolve[Det[M - IdentityMatrix[5]*x] == 0, x][[n]], {n, 1, 5}]] gives:{0.56984, 0.56984, 1., 1., 3.0796}
