A022034 Define the generalized Pisot sequence T(a(0),a(1)) by: a(n+2) is the greatest integer such that a(n+2)/a(n+1) < a(n+1)/a(n). This is T(6,31). 1

COMMENTS
This coincides with the Pisot T(6,31) sequence as defined in A008776 at least up to n <=18000. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 13 2016
The recurrence 5*a(n-1)+a(n-2)-a(n-3)-a(n-5) starts to fail at n=22. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 13 2016
