Why does the tribonacci constant have a trilogarithm ladder?
When I came across the dilogarithm ladders of Coxeter and Landen, namely,
$$\text{Li}_2\Big(\frac1{\phi^6}\Big)-4\text{Li}_2\Big(\frac1{\phi^3}\Big)-3\text{Li}_2\Big(\frac1{\phi^2}\Big)+6\text{Li}_2\...

Polylogarithm ladders for the tribonacci and n-nacci constants
While reading about polylogarithms, I came across the nice polylogarithm ladder,
$$6\operatorname{Li}_2(x^{-1})-3\operatorname{Li}_2(x^{-2})-4\operatorname{Li}_2(x^{-3})+\operatorname{Li}_2(x^{-6}) = ...
