Let G[t] be the set of numbers between 2^{t-1} and 2^t-1, inclusive. There is a unique number a[t] in G[t] so that the denominator of the a[t]-th partial sum of the double harmonic series is divisible by smaller 2-powers than its neighbors. |

FORMULA
|
a(n+1)-2*a(n) = (a(n+1) mod 2); a(n)=floor(c*2^n) where c= 1.718232...=3 /2 + sum(k>=2, (a(k+1)-2*a(k))/2^k ) - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Jan 24 2003

EXAMPLE
|
a(3)=6 because \sum_{1\le k<l\le 6} 1/(kl)= 203/90, 4 does not divide 90, while 4 divides the denominators of both \sum_{1\le k<l\le 5} 1/(kl)=15/8 and \sum_{1\le k<l\le 7} 1/(kl)=469/180
