(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A080839 Number of increasing integer sequences of length n with Gilbreath transform (that is, the diagonal of leading successive absolute differences) given by {1,1,1,1,1,...}. 0
1, 1, 1, 2, 6, 27, 180, 1786, 26094, 559127, 17535396, 804131875, 53833201737 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)

COMMENTS

The slowest-growing sequence of length n is 1,2,4,6,...,2(n-1). The fastest-growing sequence is 1,2,4,8,...,2^(n-1). The ratio a(n+1)a(n-1)/a(n)^2 appears to converge to a constant near 1.46, which is the approximate growth rate of A001609. Are the sequences related? - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Feb 05 2007

EXAMPLE

The table below shows that {1,2,4,6,10} is one of the 6 sequences of length 5 that satisfy the stated condition:

1

2 1

4 2 1

6 2 0 1

10 4 2 2 1
