%N Strictly increasing list of F and F - 1, where F = A000045, the Fibonacci numbers.

%C Beginning with a(4) = 3, these are the numbers m such that if r = golden ratio and the fractional parts {r}, {2 r}, ..., {mr} are arranged in increasing order, then the set of differences {kr} - {(k - 1)r}, for k = 2..m, consists of exactly two numbers.

%F From _Colin Barker_, Jun 28 2015: (Start)

%F a(n) = 2*a(n-2) - a(n-6) for n>8.

%F G.f.: -x^2*(x^6+x^5+x^4-x^2-2*x-1) / ((x-1)*(x+1)*(x^4+x^2-1)).

%F (End)

%F For n >= 3, a(n) = A000045(A004526(n+5)) - A000035(n). - _Robert Israel_, Jun 29 2015

%e F = (1,1,2,3,5,8,13,...); F-1 = (0,0,1,2,4,7,12,...), so that the ordered list of F and F-1 is (0,1,2,3,4,5,7,8,...).

%e Regarding the fractional parts in Comment, for r = golden ratio and m = 7, the fractional parts are ordered as follows: -8+r, -3+2r, -11+7r, -6+4 r,-1+r, -9+6r, -4+3r. The set of differences is {5-3r, -8+5r}, so that 7 is a term in A258085.
