COMMENT

A111035 is the equivalent for Fibonacci numbers and has many elements in common with this sequence. T. D. Noe, who extended this sequence, noticed that, for some reason, 24 divides a lot of those n.

FORMULA

n such that (sum[from i=0 to n] A000032(i))/n is an integer.

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 1 because the first Lucas number is 2 and 2/1 = 2, an integer.

a(2) = 3 because the sum of the first three Lucas numbers is 2 + 1 + 3 = 6 and hence the average is 6/3 = 2, an integer.

a(6) = 24 because the average of the first 24 Lucas numbers is 2 + 1 + 3 + 4 + 7 + 11 + 18 + 29 + 47 + 76 + 123 + 199 + 322 + 521 + 843 + 1364 + 2207 + 3571 + 5778 + 9349 + 15127 + 24476 + 39603 + 64079) / 24 = 6990, an integer.

MATHEMATICA

Lucas[n_] := Fibonacci[n+1]+Fibonacci[n-1]; lst={}; s=0; Do[s=s+Lucas[n]; If[Mod[s, n]==0, AppendTo[lst, n]], {n, 1000}]; lst (Noe)
