COMMENT

The following sequences all have the same parity: A004737, A006590, A027052, A071028, A071797, A078358, A078446. - Jeremy Gardiner (jeremy.gardiner(AT)btinternet.com), Mar 16 2003

Given the fact that ceiling(x) <= x+1, we can, using well known results for the harmonic series, easily derive that n*ln(n) <= a(n) <= n*(1+ln(n)) + n = n(ln(n)+2). - Stefan Steinerberger (stefan.steinerberger(AT)gmail.com), Apr 08 2006
