Expansion of (1 - 3*x + 2*x^2)/(1 - 4*x + 3*x^2 + x^3).
In the cited Witula-Slota-Warzynski paper three so-called quasi-Fibonacci numbers A(n;d), B(n;d) and C(n;d), where n = 0,1,..., d \in C are discussed. These numbers are created by each of the following relations:
(1+d*c(j))^n = A(n;d) + B(n;d)*c(j) + C(n;d)*c(2*j), for every j=1,2,4, where c(j):=2*cos(2Pi2*Pi*j/7).
A(n;-1) =sum Sum_{k=0,..,n} binomial(n,k)*(A(k;1)*A(n-k;1)-A(k;1)*B(n-k;1)-B(k;1)*C(n-k;1)-A(n-k;1)*C(k;1)+2*B(n-k;1)*C(k;1)-C(k;1)*C(n-k;1)),
B(n;-1) =sum Sum_{k=0,..,n} binomial(n,k)*(-A(k;1)*B(n-k;1)+A(k;1)*C(n-k;1)+B(k;1)*B(n-k;1)-A(n-k;1)*C(k;1)+B(n-k;1)*C(k;1)-C(k;1)*C(n-k;1)), and
C(n;-1) =sum Sum_{k=0,..,n} binomial(n,k)*(-A(k;1)*B(n-k;1)+A(n-k;1)*B(k;1)+B(k;1)*B(n-k;1)-B(k;1)*C(n-k;1)-A(n-k;1)*C(k;1)) (see identities (3.50-52) and (3.61-63) in the Witula-Slota-Warzynski paper).
7*a(n) = (2-c(4))*(1-c(1))^n + (2-c(1))*(1-c(2))^n + (2-c(2))*(1-c(4))^n = (s(2))^2*(1-c(1))^n + (s(4))^2*(1-c(2))^n + (s(1))^2*(1-c(4))^n, where c(j):=2*cos(2Pi2*Pi*j/7) and s(j):=2*sin(2Pi2*Pi*j/7) -- it is the special case, for d=-1, of the Binet's formula for the respective quasi-Fibonacci number A(n;d) discussed in the Witula-Slota-Warzynski paper. - Roman Witula, Aug 07 2012
