FORMULA

S = [0, -1; 1, 0], T = [1, 1; 0, 1], m(0) = T*S, m(n)=T^prime(n)*S*m(0), v(0) = [1, 0], v(n) = m(n)*v(0), a(n)=v(n)[1].

MATHEMATICA

Clear[S, T, M, v, n] S = {{0, -1}, {1, 0}}; T = {{1, 1}, {0, 1}}; M[0] = T.S; M[n_] := M[n] = (MatrixPower[T, Prime[n]].S).M[0]; v[0] = {1, 0}; v[n_] := v[n] = M[n].v[0]; a = Table[v[n][[1]], {n, 0, 50}]

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=if(n, prime(n)-1, 1)

CROSSREFS

a(n) = A006093(n) for n > 0.
