The Ramanujan sequence number 11 for the argument 2Pi/9 defined by the relation a(n)*9^(1/3) = (3^(n-1))*(((-1)^(n-1))*(c(1) - 1/3)^(n + 1/3) + (((-1)^(n-1))*(c(2) - 1/3)^(n + 1/3) + (1/3 - c(4))^(n + 1/3)), where c(j) := 2*cos(2*Pi*j/9). The sequences A217052 and A217053 are conjugate with the sequence a(n). For more information on these connections - see Comments in A217053.
The 3-valuation of the sequence a(n) is equal to (0,2,1).

FORMULA
|
G.f.: x*(2+x)/(1-3*x-24*x^2-x^3).

EXAMPLE
|
We have a(4)-5*a(3)=32, 8*a(4)-a(5)=222, a(9)-a(6)=5226000. Furthermore from a(0)=0 we get (c(1) - 1/3)^( 1/3) + (c(2) - 1/3)^(1/3) = (1/3 - c(4))^(1/3), while from a(3)=69 we obtain 23*9^(-1/6) = (c(1) - 1/3)^(10/3) + (c(2) - 1/3)^(10/3) + (1/3 - c(4))^(10/3).
