x = (3 - (3 - (3 - ...)^(1/3))^(1/3))^(1/3).
The other two solutions are (w1*(81/2 + (3/2)*sqrt(741))^(1/3) + (81/2 - (3/2)*sqrt(741))^(1/3))/3 = -0.60670583... + 1.45061225...*i, where w1 = (-1 + sqrt(3)*i)/2, and its complex conjugate. With hyperbolic functions these solutions are -(1/3)*sqrt(3)*(sinh((1/3)*arcsinh((9/2)*sqrt(3))) - sqrt(3)*cosh((1/3)*arcsinh((9/2)*sqrt(3)))*i), and its complex conjugate. - Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 13 2022
FORMULA
Equals (3/2 + sqrt(741/324))^(1/3) - (-3/2 + sqrt(741/324))^(1/3).
From Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 13 2022: (Start)
Equals (1/6)*(324 + 12*sqrt(741))^(1/3) - 2/(324 + 12*sqrt(741))^(1/3).
Equals ((81/2 + (3/2)*sqrt(741))^(1/3) + w1*(81/2 - (3/2)*sqrt(741))^(1/3))/3, with w1 = (-1 + sqrt(3)*i)/2, one of the complex roots of x^3 - 1.
Equals (2/3)*sqrt(3)*sinh((1/3)*arcsinh((9/2)*sqrt(3))). (End)
