COMMENTS

Inverse of the Fibonacci sequence (A000045), nearly, since a(Fib(n))=n except for n=2 (see A130233 for another version). a(n+1) is equal to the partial sum of the Fibonacci indicator sequence (see A104162).

FORMULA

a(n)=ceiling(log_phi((sqr(5)*n+sqr(5*n^2-4))/2))=ceiling(arcosh(sqr(5)*n/2)/ln(phi)) where phi=(1+sqr(5))/2. Also true: a(n)=A130233(n-1)+1 for n>0. G.f.: g(x)=x/(1-x)*sum{k>=0, x^Fib(k)}.

a(n)=ceiling(log_phi(sqr(5)*n-1)) for n>=1, where phi is = the golden ratio. - Hieronymus Fischer (Hieronymus.Fischer(AT)gmx.de), Jul 02 2007

EXAMPLE

a(10)=7, since Fib(7)=13>=10 but Fib(6)=8<10.
