%N Numbers m such that v^n - u^m >= u^(m+1) - v^n, where u=2, v=3, and u^m < v^n < u^(m+1).
%e The condition u^m < v^n < u^(m + 1) implies m = floor(n*log(v)/log(u)). With u=2 and v=3, for n = 1, we have m = 1 and 3 - 2 >= 4 - 3, so 1 is in this sequence. For n = 2, we have m = 3 and 9 - 8 < 16 - 9, so 2 is in A372779.
