For the difference equation a(n) = c*a(n-1) - d*a(n-2), with a(0) = 0, a(1) = 1, the solution is a(n) = d^((n-1)/2) * ChebyshevU(n-1, c/(2*sqrt(d))) and has the alternate form a(n) = ( ((c + sqrt(c^2 - 4*d))/2)^n - ((c - sqrt(c^2 - 4*d))/2)^n )/sqrt(c^2 - 4*d). In the case c^2 = 4*d then the solution is a(n) = n*d^((n-1)/2). The generating function is x/(1 - c*x + d^2) and the exponential generating function takes the form (2/sqrt(c^2 - 4*d))*exp(c*x/2)*sinh(sqrt(c^2 - 4*d)*x/2) for c^2 > 4*d, (2/sqrt(4*d - c^2))*exp(c*x/2)*sin(sqrt(4*d - c^2)*x/2) for 4*d > c^2, and x*exp(sqrt(d)*x) if c^2 = 4*d. - G.

a(n+1) = a(n) + A083098(n+1). A083098(n+1)/a(n) converges to sqrt(7).
The same sequence may be obtained by the following process. Starting a priori with the fraction 1/1, the denominators of fractions built according to the rule: add top and bottom to get the new bottom, add top and 7 times the bottom to get the new top. The limit of the sequence of fractions is sqrt(7). - Cino Hilliard, Sep 25 2005

A094431(n) = left term in M^n * [1 0 0]. A stiffness matrix in Hooke's Law governs the force on nodes of stretched or compressed springs (refer to A094431). a(n)/a(n-1) tends to 4 + sqrt(7) = 6.6457513...; a(n)/A094431(n) tends to 2 + sqrt(7). A stiffness matrix is symmetric.

Examples

			a(4) = 165 since M^4 * [1 0 0] = [38 -203 165].
