COMMENTS

This sequence appears in the reduction formula for negative powers of the tribonacci constant t = A058265: t^(-n) = A(n)*t^2 + a(n)*t + A(n+1)*1, with A(n) = A057597(n+1), for n >= 0. This follows from t^3 = t^2 + t + 1, or 1/t = t^2 - t - 1 = A192918, leading to the recurrence: A(n) = -A(n) - A(n-1) + A(n-2), with inputs A(-3) = 1, A(-2) = 1 and A(-1) = 0 and a(n) = -(A(n) - A(n-1)). See the example below.

FORMULA
|
Recurrence a(n) = -a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-3), for n >=0, with a(-3) = 1, a(-2) = 0 and a(-1) = 1.
G.f.: (1 + 1/x)/(1 + x + x^2 - x^3).
