COMMENT

In general, all sequences of equations which contain every positive integer in order exactly once (a pair wise equal summed, ordered partition of the positive integers) may be defined as follows: For all k, let x(k)=A001652(k) and z(k)=A001653(k). Then if we define a(n) to be (x(k)+z(k))n^2-(z(k)-1)n-x(k), the following equation is true: a(n)+(a(n)+1)+...+(a(n)+(x(k)+z(k))n+(2x(k)+z(k)-1)/2)=(a(n)+ (x(k)+z(k))n+(2x(k)+z(k)+1)/2)+...+(a(n)+2(x(k)+z(k))n+x(k)); a(n)+2(x(k)+z(k))n+x(k))=a(n+1)-1; e.g., in this sequence, x(1)=A001652(1)=3 and z(1)=A001653(1)=5; cf. A000290,A118058-A118061.

FORMULA

a(n)+(a(n)+1)+...+(a(n)+8n+5)=(4n-1)(4n+1)(4n+3); e.g., 21+22+...+56=693=7*9*11.

EXAMPLE

a(3)=8*3^2-4*3-3=57, a(4)=8*4^2-4*4-3=109 and 57+58+...+86=87+...+108.
