a(n) is the rational component (with respect to the field Q(sqrt(13))) of the number A(2*n)*2*13^(floor((n+1)/3)/2), where A(n) = sqrt((13-3*sqrt(13))/2)*A(n-1) + (sqrt(13)-3)*A(n-2)/2 - sqrt((13-3*sqrt(13))/26)*A(n-3), with A(-1) = sqrt((13-3*sqrt(13))/2), A(0)=3, and A(1) = sqrt((13-3*sqrt(13))/2).

The basic sequence A(n) is defined by the relation A(n) = s(1)^(-n) + s(3)^(-n) + s(9)^(-n), where s(j) = 2*sin(2*Pi*j/13). The sequence with respective positive powers is discussed in A216508 (see sequence Y(n) in Comments to A216508).

We note that s(1) + s(3) + s(9) = s(1)^(-1) + s(3)^(-1) + s(9)^(-1) = sqrt((13-3*sqrt(13))/2).

The numbers of other Berndt-type sequences for the argument 2*Pi/13 in crossrefs are given.
