COMMENTS
Lower level digraph derived from a voltage graph (Gross's covering graph construction) that is a generalized Fibonacci Markov. In matrix terms gives a 6 X 6 Markov with characteristic Polynomial (-1 - x + x^2)*(1 + 2*x + 2*x^2 + x^3 + x^4).
This digraph construction gives a complex substructure to the Fibonacci Pisot that is not Pisot. Gross's covering graph constructions called voltage graphs are abstractions from lower level graphs.
limit_{n to Infinity} (a(n+1)/a(n)) = Golden Mean.

FORMULA
Let M be the 6x6 matrix given by: M = {{0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0}}, then v(n) = M.v(n-1), where a(n) = v(n)(1).
From Vladimir Kruchinin, Oct 12 2011: (Start)
G.f.: x/(1-(x+x^2)^3).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(3*k,n-3*k). (End)
a(n) = a(n-3) + 3*a(n-4) + 3*a(n-5) + a(n-6). - G. C. Greubel, Mar 22 2019
