A heuristic argument suggests that the limit of a(n)/n is m - sum_{n=m..inf} log(1 + x^n)/log(x) = 14.874449248373..., where x=(1/zeta(3)) and m=floor(log(1-x)/log(x))=9. %F A080059 a(n)=sum_{k=1..n}floor(g_k) where g_1=1, g_{n+1}=log_x(x^frac(g_n) - x) (n>0) at x=(1/zeta(3)) and frac(y) = y - floor(y).
