%N Let i be in {1,2,3,4} and r>=0 an integer. Let p ={p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4} = {-3,0,1,2}, n=3*r+p_i and define a(-3)=0. Then a(n)=a(3*r+p_i) gives the number of H_(9,3,0) tiles in a subdivided H_(9,i,r) tile after linear scaling by the factor Q^r, where Q=sqrt(2*cos(Pi/9)).

%C Let r>=0, and let C_r be the r-th "block" defined by C_r = {a(3*r-3), a(3*r), a(3*r+1), a(3*r+2)} with a(-3)=0. Note that C_r - C_(r-1) - 3*C_(r-2) + 2*C_(r-3) + C_(r-4) = {0,0,0,0}, for r>=4, with initial conditions {C_k}={{0,0,1,0},{0,1,0,1},{1,0,2,1},{0,3,1,3}}, k=0,1,2,3. Let p={p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4}={-3,0,1,2}, n=3*r+p_i and M=(m_(i,j))=(U_1)^r, i,j=1,2,3,4. Then C_r corresponds component-wise to the third column of M, and a(n)=a(3*r+p_i)=m_(i,3) gives the quantity of H_(9,3,0) tiles that should appear in a subdivided H_(9,i,r) tile. (End)

%C Since a(3*r)=a(3*(r+1)-3) for all r, this sequence arises by concatenation of third-column entries m_(2,3), m_(3,3) and m_(4,3) from successive matrices M=(U_1)^r.
