Comments

I.e., in permutations A057161 and A057162 (also A057503 and A057504), the longest cycle among all cycles between the (A014138(n-2)+1)-th and (A014138(n-1))-th terms.

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..66.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,-1).

Formula

a(0)=1, a(1)=1, a(2)=2, a(n)=n+2.

From Chai Wah Wu, Jul 28 2022: (Start)

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n > 4.

G.f.: (-2*x^4 + 2*x^3 + x^2 - x + 1)/(x - 1)^2. (End)
