A098080 Nontrivial slowest increasing sequence whose succession of digits is that of the nonnegative integers. 3

COMMENTS
Beginning with 1, 23, 45, etc. gives a similar sequence which however grows more quickly. Other sequences can be generated by varying the "template" of the succession of digits (such as the decimal expansion of Pi, e, and so on).
1, 23, 45, 67, 89, 101, 112, 131, 415, 1617, 1819, 2021, 2223, ..., 9899, 10010, 110210, 310410, 510610, 710810, 911011, 1112113, ... does grow faster, but what about 1, 23, 45, 67, 89, 101, 112, 131, 415, 1617, ..., (2k)(2k+1), ...? The claim of "slowest" requires that after a(1), the smallest possible option must always be used (9899->10010 instead of 9899->100101). - Danny Rorabaugh, Nov 27 2015

FORMULA
Write down the sequence of nonnegative integers and consider its succession of digits. Divide up into chunks of minimal length (and not beginning with 0) so that chunks are increasing numbers in order to form the slowest ever increasing sequence of slices (disregarding the number of digits) of the succession of the digits of the whole numbers.
