COMMENT

Define the sequence S(a_0,a_1) by a_{n+2} is the least integer such that a_{n+2}/a_{n+1}>a_{n+1}/a_n for n >= 0. This is S(1,4).

FORMULA
|
A member of the family of sequences defined by a(n) = (a_1+1)a(n-1) - (a_1-1)a(n-2). Alternatively, invert A007052 (invert: define b by 1+Sum a(n)x^n = 1/(1 - Sum b(n)x^n)).
a(n+1)a(n+1) - a(n+2)a(n) = -3^n, n > 0. - Douglas Rogers, Jul 11 2004.
