A098290 Recurrence sequence based on positions of digits in decimal places of Zeta(3) (Apery's constant). +0
12
0, 2, 1, 10, 208, 380, 394, 159, 10, 208, 380, 394, 159, 10, 208, 380, 394, 159, 10 (list; graph; listen)
OFFSET

0,2

COMMENT

This recurrence sequence starts to repeat quite quickly because 1 appears at the 10th digit of Zeta(3), which is also where 159 starts. Do all recurrence relations of this kind for transcendental numbers eventually repeat?

FORMULA

a(1)=0, p(i)=position of first occurrence of a(i) in decimal places of Zeta(3), a(i+1)=p(i).

EXAMPLE

Zeta(3)=1.2020569031595942853997...

a(1)=0, a(2)=2 because 2nd decimal = 0, a(3)=1 because first digit = 2, etc

CROSSREFS

Cf. A098266 (for e version), A097614 (for Pi version), A098289 (for ln(2) version), A002117 for digits of Zeta(3).
