Is $a_n = f(a + b c^n)$ when $a_0 = \ln(2)$ and $a_{n+1} = (e+1) a_n (a_n - 1)$?

Let $a_n$ be a real sequence.

Assume there exists a continuous real-periodic function $f(x)$ such that

$f(n) = a_n$

And $f(x)$ has the period $t$ , where $t$ is An irrational real number.

Then we say $a_n$ is periodic and has An irrational period. Or we say $a_n$ Has An irrational periodic orbit.


Let $a_0 = \ln(2)$ and $a_{n+1} = (e+1) a_n (1 - a_n)$.

Does there exist an $f$ such that :

$$a_n = f( a + b c^n)$$

Where $a,b,c$ are (fixed) real values and $f$ is a real-continuous periodic function with real irrational period $t$ ?
