Actually i didn't write it, someone of moderators did that..
how does (1+z)^2000 = z ?
Better write the expansion of x(1+x)^2000 .replace x=1,omega,omega^2 in the expanded equation .add the three equations and u get the answer.
Did the same!!

Let z be complex number such that z 3 = 1 .
And
S = ( 2 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 5 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 8 2 0 0 0 ) + . . + ( 2 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 )
Now take a look at number ( 1 + z ) 2 0 0 0
Using the binomial formula and using the definition of z in binomial expand you will have terms with z or z 2 or z 3 = 1 . So you can rewrite our number as:
( 1 + z ) 2 0 0 0 = ( 0 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 3 2 0 0 0 ) + . . . + ( 1 9 9 8 2 0 0 0 ) + z ( ( 1 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 4 2 0 0 0 ) + . . . + ( 1 9 9 9 2 0 0 0 ) ) + z 2 ( ( 2 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 5 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 8 2 0 0 0 ) + . . + ( 2 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 ) )
Using that ( k n ) = ( n − k n ) .
( 0 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 3 2 0 0 0 ) + . . . + ( 1 9 9 8 2 0 0 0 ) = ( 2 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 5 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 8 2 0 0 0 ) + . . + ( 2 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 ) = S
And because of that the last term can be written as:
( 1 2 0 0 0 ) + ( 4 2 0 0 0 ) + . . . + ( 1 9 9 9 2 0 0 0 ) = 2 2 0 0 0 − 2 S
Now we have:
( 1 + z ) 2 0 0 0 = S + z ( 2 n − 2 S ) + z 2 S
Now you can calculate it simple using the fact that if z 3 = 1 than 1 + z + z 2 = 0
So now
( 1 + z ) 2 0 0 0 = z
And
z = S + z ( 2 n − 2 S ) − S − z S
z = z 2 n − z 3 S
And finally
S = 3 2 2 0 0 0 − 1
