The negative root is -(A189038 - 1) = -0.6403882032... .
c^n = A052923(-n) + A006131(-(n+1))*phi17, for n >= 0, with phi17 = A222132 = (1 + sqrt(17))/2, A052923(-n) = -(-2*i)^(-n)*S(-(n+2), i/2) = (i/2)^n*S(n, i/2), with i = sqrt(-1), and A006131(-(n+1)) = A052923(-n+1)/4 = -(i/2)^(n+1)*S(n-1, i/2), with the S-Chebyshev polynomials (see A049310), and S(-n, x) = -S(n-2, x), for n >= 1. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jan 04 2024
FORMULA
c = (-1 + sqrt(17))/8 = A189038 - 5/4 = A174930 - 5/8.
c = 1/phi17 = (-1 + phi17)/4, with phi17 = A222132. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jan 05 2024
