Comments

The formula for rho(11)^n, with rho(11) = 2*cos(Pi/11) (the length ratio (smallest diagonal)/side in the regular 11-gon) written in the power basis of the number field Q(rho(11)) is: rho(11)^n = a(n)*1 - A231183(n)*rho(11) - A231184(n-2)* rho(11)^2 + A231185(n-3)*rho(11)^3 + a(n+1)*rho(11)^4, n >= 0.

Formula

G.f.: (1-x-x^2)*(1-3*x^2)/(1-x-4*x^2+3*x^3+3*x^4-x^5).

a(n) = a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2) - 3*a(n-3) - 3*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n>= 5, with a(0)=1, a(1)=a(2)=a(3)=a(4)=0.

a(n) = b(n) - b(n-1) - 4*b(n-2) + 3*b(n-3) + 3*b(n-4) for n>=0, with b(n) = A231181(n).

Example

rho(11)^4 = 0*1 - 0*rho(11) - 0*rho(11)^2 + 0*rho(11)^3 + 1*rho(11)^4 (trivial).
rho(11)^5 = 1*1 - 3*rho(11) - 3*rho(11)^2 + 4*rho(11)^3 + 1*rho(11)^4. Approximately 26.02309649, with rho(11) approximately 1.918985947.
