%N Minimal exponents m such that the fractional part of (11/10)^m obtains a maximum (when starting with m=1).

%C Recursive definition: a(1)=1, a(n) = least number m>a(n-1) such that the fractional part of (11/10)^m is greater than the fractional part of (11/10)^k for all k, 1<=k<m.

%C The next such number must be greater than 2*10^5.

%C a(22) > 10^7. _Robert Price_, Mar 19 2019

%F Recursion: a(1):=1, a(k):=min{ m>1 | fract((11/10)^m) > fract((11/10)^a(k-1))}, where fract(x) = x-floor(x).

%e a(8)=23, since fract((11/10)^23)= 0.9543..., but fract((11/10)^k)<0.95 for 1<=k<=22;

%e thus fract((11/10)^23)>fract((11/10)^k) for 1<=k<23 and 23 is the minimal exponent > 7 with this property.
