A132665 a(1)=1, a(2)=3, a(n) = a(n-1) + n if the minimal positive integer not yet in the sequencer is greater than a(n-1), else a(n) = a(n-1)-1. 10

%N a(1)=1, a(2)=3, a(n) = a(n-1) + n if the minimal positive integer not yet in the sequencer is greater than a(n-1), else a(n) = a(n-1)-1.

%C Also: a(1)=1, a(2)=3, a(n) = maximal positive number < a(n-1) not yet in the sequence, if it exists, else a(n) = a(n-1) + n.

%C Also: a(1)=1, a(2)=3, a(n) = a(n-1) - 1, if a(n-1) - 1 > 0 and has not been encountered so far, else a(n) = a(n-1) + n.

%C A permutation of the positive integers. The sequence is self-inverse, in that a(a(n)) = n.

%F G.f.: g(x) = (F'(x) - x^2 - 1/(1-x))/(1-x) where F(x) = Sum_{k>=0} x^Fibonacci(k). F(x) is the g.f. of the Fibonacci indicator sequence (see A104162) and F'(x) = derivative of F(x).

%F a(n) = Fibonacci(Fibonacci_inverse(n+1) + 2) - n - 3 = A000045(A130233(n+1) + 2) - n - 3.

%F a(n) = A000032(floor(log_phi(sqrt(5)*(n+1) + 1) + 2)) - n - 3, where phi = (1 + sqrt(5))/2 is the golden ratio.

%F a(n) = A000032(floor(log_phi(sqrt(5)*n + 2*phi) + 2)) - n - 3.

%Y Cf. A000045, A104152, A130233.
