Let {X,Y,Z} be the roots of the cubic equation t^3 + at^2 + bt + c = 0 where {a, b, c} are integers.
Let {u, v, w} be three numbers such that {u + v + w, u*X + v*Y + w*Z, u*X^2 + v*Y^2 + w*Z^2} are integers.
Then {p(n) = u*X^n + v*Y^n + w*Z^n | n = 0, 1, 2, ...} is an integer sequence with the recurrence relation: p(n) = -a*p(n-1) - b*p(n-2) - c*p(n-3).
Let k = Pi/7.
This sequence has (a, b, c) = (2, -1, -1), (u, v, w) = (2*cos(4k), 2*cos(8k), 2*cos(2k)).
A033304, A274975: (a, b, c) = (2, -1, -1), (u, v, w) = (2*cos(2k), 2*cos(4k), 2*cos(8k)).
A321174 : (a, b, c) = (2, -1, -1), (u, v, w) = (2*cos(8k), 2*cos(2k), 2*cos(4k)).
X = sin(2k)/sin(4k), Y = sin(4k)/sin(8k), Z = sin(8k)/sin(2k).
