%e The Beatty sequence for 2 + sqrt(3) is A003512 = (0,3,7,11,14,18,22,26,...), with difference sequence s = A276865 = (3,4,4,3,4,4,4,3,4,4,4,3,4,4,3,...). The sums s(j)+s(j+1)+...+s(k) include (3,4,7,8,11,12,14,15,18,...), with complement (1,2,5,6,9,10,13,...).

%t z = 500; r = 2 + Sqrt[3]; b = Table[Floor[k*r], {k, 0, z}]; (* A003512 *)

%t t = Differences[b]; (* A276865 *)

%t c[k_, n_] := Sum[t[[i]], {i, n, n + k - 1}];

%t u[k_] := Union[Table[c[k, n], {n, 1, z - k + 1}]];

%t w = Flatten[Table[u[k], {k, 1, z}]]; Complement[Range[Max[w]], w] (* A276883 *)
