Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Limiting sequence when we start with the positive integers (A000027) and delete in step n >= 1 the first digit in the term at position n + a(n).

%N Limiting sequence when we start with the positive integers (A000027) and delete in step n >= 1 the first digit in the term at position n + a(n).

%e First few steps are:

%e 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,...

%e n = 1; delete the first digit in the term at position 1+a(1) = 2: 2;

%e 1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,...

%e n = 2; delete the first digit in the term at position 2+a(2) = 5: 6;

%e 1,3,4,5,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,...

%e n = 3; delete the first digit in the term at position 3+a(3) = 7: 9;

%e 1,3,4,5,7,8,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,...

%e n = 4; delete the first digit in the term at position 4+a(4) = 9: 1;

%e 1,3,4,5,7,8,10,11,2,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,...

%e 1,3,4,5,7,8,10,11,2,13,14,5,16,17,18,19,20,...
