A079278 Define a rational sequence {b(n)} as b(1) = 1, b(n) = b(n-1) + 1/(1 + 1/b(n-1)) for n > 1; a(n) is the denominator of b(n). 7

%N Define a rational sequence {b(n)} as b(1) = 1, b(n) = b(n-1) + 1/(1 + 1/b(n-1)) for n > 1; a(n) is the denominator of b(n).

%C The next term is too large to include.

%C The same sequence of denominators is produced by c(1) = 1 and for n > 1, c(n) = c(n-1) + 1/(n + 1 - c(n-1)). In that case, the sequence begins 1, 3/2, 19/10, 689/310, 902919/363010, 1610893922869/594665194510, ... . - _Leonid Broukhis_, Jul 09 2022

%D Suggested by _Leroy Quet_, Feb 14 2003.

%F Conjecture (Quet): a(m+1) = a(m)^2 + a(m)^3 / a(m-1)^2 - a(m)*a(m-1)^2 for m >= 2.

%e The b sequence begins 1, 3/2, 21/10, 861/310, 1275141/363010, 2551762438701/594665194510, ...

%p b := proc(n) option remember; if n=1 then 1 else b(n-1)+1/(1+1/b(n-1)); fi; end;
