F(λ) = λ2, then equation (3) gives the limit of the average eigenvalue of A2.
On the other hand, for A2 = AA, we have the Aii2 = ∑ kaikaki = ai,i−1ai−1,i+ai,iai,i+ai,i+1ai+1,i = a1a−1+a02+a−1a1 = a02+2a1a−1
Similarly we have Ai,i+12 = ∑ kaikak,i+1 = ai,i−1ai−1,i+1+ai,iai,i+1+ai,i+1ai+1,i+1 = a1×0+a0a−1+a−1a0 = 2a0a−1
Ai,i+22 = ∑ kaikak,i+2 = ai,i−1ai−1,i+2+ai,iai,i+2+ai,i+1ai+1,i+2 = a1×0+a0×0+a−1a−1 = a−12
So we see that A2 symbol is (A(𝜃))2.
