%N A005991 Let k(n) denote the least integer such that every n X n (0,1)-matrix
with exactly k(n) ones in each row and in each column contains a
2 X 2 submatrix without zeros. The sequence gives the index n of
the last term in each string of equal entries in k(n).
%C A005991 1 is not in the sequence because a 1 X 1 matrix does not contain a 2
X 2 submatrix. - Herman Jamke (hermanjamke(AT)fastmail.fm), Mar 02
