COMMENT

These numbers converge to various last 3 digit endings and only two last 2 digit numbers: 2,1 or 3,1.

EXAMPLE

The trajectories starting at x=2, 3, 4 etc are (3,1), (1), (5,6,2,3,1), (6,2,3,1), (2,3,1), (8,9,3,1) etc. Each "1" marks the end of a trajectory.

PROGRAM

(PARI) mult3p1(n, p) = { print1(1" "); for(j=1, n, x=j; while(x>1, if(x%3==0, x/=3, x = x*p+1 ) ; print1(x" ") ; ); ) ; print1(" ") ; } { mult3p1(30, 1) ; } - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Feb 01 2008
