A083238 First order recursion: a(0)=1; a(n) = sigma(1,n) - a(n-1). 2

%N First order recursion: a(0)=1; a(n) = sigma(1,n) - a(n-1).

%C Provide interesting decomposition: sigma(n)=u+w, where u and w consecutive terms of this sequence; this depends also on initial value.

%F It follows that a(n)+a(n-1) = A000203(n).

%t f[x_] := DivisorSigma[1, x]-f[x-1] f[0]=1; Table[f[w], {w, 1, 100}]

%o (PARI) lista(nn) = {my(last = 1, v=vector(nn)); for (n=1, nn, v[n] = sigma(n) - last; last = v[n]; ); concat(1, v); } \\ _Michel Marcus_, Mar 28 2020
