%N A348728 Decimal expansion of the absolute value of one of the negative roots of Shanks' simplest cubic associated with the prime p = 37.
%C A348728 Let a be an integer and let p be a prime of the form a^2 + 3*a + 9 (see A005471). Shanks introduced a family of cyclic cubic fields generated by the roots of the polynomial x^3 - a*x^2 - (a + 3)*x - 1. The polynomial has three real roots, one positive and two negative.
%C A348728 In the case a = 4, corresponding to the prime p = 37, the three real roots of the cubic x^3 - 4*x^2 - 7*x - 1 in descending order are r_0 = 5.3447123654..., r_1 = - 0.1576115578... and r_2 = - 1.1871008076....
%C A348728 Here we consider the absolute value of the root r_2. See A348726 (r_0) and A348727 (|r_1|) for the other two roots.

%F A348728 Let R = <1, 6, 8, 10, 11, 14, 23, 26, 27, 29, 31, 36> denote the multiplicative subgroup of nonzero cubic residues in the finite field Z_37, with cosets 2*R = {2, 9, 12, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21, 22, 25, 28, 35} and 3*R = {3, 4, 5, 7, 13, 18, 19, 24, 30, 32, 33, 34}. Then the constant equals Product_{n >= 0} ( Product_{k in the coset 3*R} (37*n+k) )/( Product_{k in the group R} (37*n + k) ).
