COMMENTS
Conjectures: Equals both A245219 and A097509. - Michel Dekking, Feb 18 2020
Theorem: If the initial term of A097509 is omitted, it is identical to the present sequence. For proof, see A097509. The argument may also imply that A082844 is also the same as these two sequences, apart from the initial terms. - Manjul Bhargava, Kiran Kedlaya, and Lenny Ng, Mar 02 2021. Postscript from the same authors, Sep 09 2021: We have proved that the present sequence, A276862 (indexed from 1) matches the characterization of {c_{i-1}} given by (8) of our "Solutions" page.

FORMULA
a(n) = floor((n+1)*r) - floor(n*r) = A003151(n+1)-A003151(n), where r = 1 + sqrt(2), n >= 1.
