%F Empirical G.f.: (3-2*x)/(1-5*x+3*x^2). - _Colin Barker_, Feb 21 2012

%F Empirical: a(n) = 5*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2) with n>1, a(0)=3 and a(1)=13. - _Vincenzo Librandi_, Apr 17 2012

%F The empirical g.f. and recurrence above hold for n<=6000. - _Bruno Berselli_, Sep 03 2013

%F Note the warning in A010925 from Pab Ter (pabrlos(AT)yahoo.com), May 23 2004: [A010925] and other examples show that it is essential to reject conjectured generating functions for Pisot sequences until a proof or reference is provided. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jul 26 2016
