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”).

COMMENTS
We consider the system of linear equations using (mod 10):
x1 + x2 + x3 + ... + x9 = 1
x0 + x2 + x3 + ... + x9 = 2
x0 + x1 + x3 + ... + x9 = 3
………………………….
x0 + x1 + ... + x7 + x9 = 9
x0 + x1 + x2 + ... + x8 = 0
where xi are the decimal digits of n.
For n = 2, 3,...,10 we obtain the equation Ax = b where A is the matrix with n rows and n columns, x is the vector [x0, x1,...,xp] where p = n-1, and b is the vector [1, 2,..., n] (mod 10). For n = 2, 4, 8 and 10, the solution is unique. For n = 5, 6 and 9, the system has no solution. For n = 3 and 7, the system has two solutions.
Properties of the sequence:
a(5) is the concatenation of a(2) and a(4);
a(2) is the suffix of a(7);
a(3) is the prefix of a(6) and a(7) and also the suffix of a(8);
a(8) contains the digits of a(4) and a(2).
EXAMPLE
9876 = x0 x1 x2 x3 is in the sequence because:
x1 + x2 + x3 = 8+7+6 = 21 == 1 mod 10;
x0 + x2 + x3 = 9+7+6 = 22 == 2 mod 10;
x0 + x1 + x3 = 9+8+6 = 23 == 3 mod 10;
x0 + x1 + x2 = 9+8+7 = 24 == 4 mod 10.
