COMMENTS

Note that leading zeros are allowed in these numbers.

a(1) is the 1-positional system 1!=1 numbers

a(2) to a(3) are two=2! 2-positional system numbers

a(4) to a(9) are six=3! 3-positional system numbers

a(10) to a(33) are 24=4! 4-positional system numbers

a(34) to a(153) are 120=5! 5-positional system numbers

...

There are a(!k)-a(Sum[m!,1,k])=a(A003422)-a(A007489) k-positional system k! numbers

The name permutational numbers arises because each permutation of k elements is isomorphic with one and only one of member of this sequence and conversely each number in this sequence is isomorphic with one and only one permutation of k elelmnts or its equivalent permutation matrix.

EXAMPLE

We build permutational numbers:

a(1)=0 in unitary positional system we have only one digit 0

a(2)=1 because in binary positional system smaller number with two different digits is 01 = 1

a(3)=2 because in binary positional system bigger number with two different digits is 10 = 2 (binary system is over)

a(4)=5 because smallest number in ternary system with 3 different digits is 012=5

a(5)=7 second number in ternary system with 3 different digits is 021=7

a(6)=11 third number in ternary system with 3 different digits is 102=11

a(7)=15 120=15

etc.

MATHEMATICA

a = {}; b = {}; Do[AppendTo[b, n]; w = Permutations[b]; Do[j = FromDigits[w[[m]], n + 1]; AppendTo[a, j], {m, 1, Length[w]}], {n, 0, 5}]; a (*Artur Jasinski*)
