COMMENTS
Tribonacci (A000213) analog of A096535. The analogous 3 Klaus Brockhaus conjectures are applicable: (1) All numbers appear infinitely often, i.e., for every number k >= 0 and every frequency f > 0 there is an index i such that a(i) = k is the f-th occurrence of k in the sequence. (2) a(j) = a(j-1) + a(j-2) + a(j-3) and a(j) = a(j-1) + a(j-2) + a(j-3) - j occur approximately equally often, i.e., lim_{n -> infinity} x_n / y_n = 1, where x_n is the number of j <= n such that a(j) = a(j-1) + a(j-2) + a(j-3) and y_n is the number of j <= n such that a(j) = a(j-1) + a(j-2) + a(j-3) - j (cf. A122276). (3) There are sections a(g+1), ..., a(g+k) of arbitrary length k such that a(g+h) = a(g+h-1) + a(g+h-2) + a(g+h-3) for h = 1,...,k, i.e., the sequence is nondecreasing in these sections (cf. A122277, A122278, A122279).
