Like Keith numbers but starting from n/3 digits to reach n.
Consider the digits of n/3. Take their sum and repeat the process deleting the first addend and adding the previous sum. The sequence lists the numbers that after some iterations reach a sum equal to themselves.
If it exists, a(20) > 10^12. - Lars Blomberg Mar 13 2017
EXAMPLE
609/3 = 203:
2 + 0 + 3 = 5;
0 + 3 + 5 = 8;
3 + 5 + 8 = 16;
5 + 8 + 16 = 29;
8 + 16 + 29 = 53;
16 + 29 + 53 = 98;
29 + 53 + 98 = 180;
53 + 98 + 180 = 331;
98 + 180 + 331 = 609.
