COMMENT

Recursive definition: a(1)=1, a(n) = least number m such that the fractional part of (3/2)^m is less than the fractional part of (3/2)^k for all k, 1<=k<m.
The next such number must be greater than 305000.

FORMULA
|
Recursion: a(1):=1, a(k):=min{ m>1 | fract((3/2)^m) < fract((3/2)^a(k-1))}, where fract(x) = x-floor(x).
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(3)=4, since fract((3/2)^4)=0.0625, but fract((3/2)^k)=0.5, 0.25, 0.375, for 1<=k<=3; thus fract((3/2)^4)<fract((3/2)^k) for 1<=k<4.
