%N a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + 46*a(n-2) + a(n-3) with a(0)=a(1)=3, a(2)=101.
%C The Ramanujan-type sequence number 6 for the argument 2Pi/7 (see also A214683, A215112, A006053, A006054, A215076, A215100, A120757 for the numbers: 1, 1a, 2, 2a, 3, 4 and 5 respectively).
%C The sequence a(n) is one of the three special sequences (the remaining two are A215569 and A215572) connected with the following recurrence relation: T(n):=49^(1/3)*T(n-2)+T(n-3), with T(0)=3, T(1)=0, and T(2)=2*49^(1/3) - see the comments to A214683.
%C It can be proved that
%C T(n) = (c(1)^4/c(2))^(n/3) + (c(2)^4/c(4))^(n/3) + (c(4)^4/c(1))^(n/3), where c(j):=2*cos(2*Pi*j/7), and the following decomposition hold true:
%C T(n) = at(n) + bt(n)*7^(1/3) + ct(n)*49^(1/3), where sequences at(n), bt(n), and ct(n) satisfy the following system of recurrence equations: at(n)=7*bt(n-2)+at(n-3),
%C bt(n)=7*ct(n-2)+bt(n-3), ct(n)=at(n-2)+ct(n-3), with at(0)=3, at(1)=at(2)=bt(0)=bt(1)=bt(2)=ct(0)=ct(1)=0, ct(2)=2 - for details see the first Witula reference.
%C It follows that a(n)=at(3*n), bt(3*n)=ct(3*n)=0.
%C Every difference of the form a(n)-a(n-2)-a(n-3) is divisible by 3. Because the difference a(n+1)-a(n) is congruent to the difference a(n-4)-a(n-2) modulo 3 we easily deduce that a(6)-a(5) and a(7)-a(6)-2 are both divisible by 3.
