Matrix T(m,x(1)), m>=1, x(1)>=2, read by anti-diagonals, where T(m,x(1)) gives the position of the first noninteger term in the sequence defined by x(n)=(x(n-1)*(x(n-1)^m+n-1))/n for n>=2 with exponent m and the given starting value x(1). |

COMMENT

The rectangular table (Table 1, page 35) in Ibstedt's book gives the position of the first noninteger term for parameters x1 and m:
m\x1:.2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9..10..11
.1...43...7..17..34..17..17..51..17...7..34
.2...89..89..89..89..31.151..79..89..79.601
.3...97..17..23..97.149..13..13..83..23..13
.4..214..43.139.107.269.107.214.139.251.107
.5...19..83..13..19..13..37..13..37.347..19
.6..239.191.359.419.127.127.239.191.239.461
.7...37...7..23..37..23..37..17..23...7..37

EXAMPLE
|
T(m,x(1))=T(1,3)=a(2)=7:
x(1)=3, x(2)=x(1)*(x(1)^1+2-1)/n=3*(3+2-1)/2=6,
x(3)=6*(6+3-1)/3=16, x(4)=16*(16+4-1)/4=76, x(5)=76*(76+5-1)/5=1216,
x(6)=1216*(1216+6-1)/6=247456, x(7)=247456*(247456+7-1)/7=8747993810+2/7
i.e. x(7) is the first noninteger term in the sequence x(n)=x(n-1)*(x(n-1)^1+n-1)/n, n>=2, x(1)=3
