This sequence of functions converges uniformly. But the limiting function is not differentiable on a dense subset of this interval. %C A006046 Comment from D. E. Knuth, Jun 18 2007: I submitted a problem to the Amer. Math. Monthly about an infinite family of non-convex sequences that solve a recurrence that involves minimization: a(1) = 1; a(n) = max { ua(k)+a(n-k) | 1 <= k <= n/2 }, for n>1; here u is any real-valued constant >= 1. The case u=2 gives the present sequence. Cf. A130665 - A130667. %C A006046 a(n) = sum of (n-1)-th row terms of triangle A166556 [From Gary W.
