It seems that a(n) is asymptotic to C*BesselI(0,2*sqrt(n)) where C is a constant C = 0.78... and BesselI(b,x) is the modified Bessel function of the first kind. Can someone prove this?

FORMULA
|
a(1) = 1, a(n+1) = a(n) + ceiling((a(1) + a(2) + ... + a(n))/n).
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(5) = a(4) + ceiling((a(1)+a(2)+a(3)+a(4))/4) = 7 + ceiling((1+2+4+7)/4) = 7 + floor(14/4) = 7 + 4 = 11.
