COMMENT

In the set of all positive differences of the sequence each integer appears exactly once, i.e. lambda = 1.

a(A115406(n))-a(A115407(n))=n; a(m)-a(n)=A115409(m*(m-1)/2+n+1), 1<=n<m. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Jan 22 2006

FORMULA

Let N_1={1, 2}. Given N_i, let N_{i+1} = N_i union {2k+2, 2k+2+j} where k = max element of N_i and j = smallest number not of form x-y for x, y in N_i, x>y. Union of all N_i gives sequence.
