COMMENT

This sequence displays every positive integer exactly twice, and the gap between the two occurrences of n contains exactly n other values. The first occurrence of n precedes the first occurrence of n+1. (cont.)

Also related to the Wythoff array (A035513) and the Para-Fibonacci sequence (A035513) where every positive integer is displayed exactly once in the whole array. Take any integer n in A026272 and let C = number of terms from the beginning of the sequence to the second occurrence of n. Then C = (2nd term after n in the applicable sequence for n in A035513). (cont.)

Also in the second occurrence of n in A026272, let N=n ( - one term) = (first term value after n in the applicable sequence for n in A035513). In this format the second occurrence of n in A026272 will produce in A035513, n itself and two of the succeeding terms of n in the Wythoff array where every positive integer can only be displayed once. (cont.)

In A026272 if |a(n)-a(n+1)| > 10 then phi ~ a(n)/|a(n)-a(n+1)|. When n -> infinity it will converge to phi. - Dan Joyce (danj_536(AT)msn.com), Apr 13 2001
