All complex numbers can be expressed as r(cosθ+isinθ)=reiθ. Let zn be rneiθn. zn2zn+3=zn2zn+22zn+1=zn2zn+15zn2=zn+15 is real for all n≥1, so θn=5πkn for all n≥2, where kn is an integer. θ1+2θ2=θ3, so we may write θ1=5πk1 with k1 an integer. r4r3=r5r4⇒r5=r3r42=r42r3, so r3=1.r4r3=2⇒r4=21,r4=r32r2⇒r2=21, and r3=r22r1⇒r1=4. Therefore, the possible values of z1 are the nonreal roots of the equation x10−410=0, and the product of the eight possible values is 42410=48=65536. For these values of z1, it is not difficult to construct a sequence which works, by choosing z2 nonreal so that ∣z2∣=21.
