A307021 a(n) is defined by the condition that the decimal expansion of the Sum_{n>=1} 1/(Sum_{k=1..n} a(k)) = 1/a(1) + 1/(a(1)+a(2)) + 1/(a(1)+a(2)+a(3)) + ... begins with the concatenation of these numbers; also a(1) = 10 and a(n) > a(n-1). 6

%N a(n) is defined by the condition that the decimal expansion of the Sum_{n>=1} 1/(Sum_{k=1..n} a(k)) = 1/a(1) + 1/(a(1)+a(2)) + 1/(a(1)+a(2)+a(3)) + ... begins with the concatenation of these numbers; also a(1) = 10 and a(n) > a(n-1).

%C At any step only the least value greater than a(n) is taken into consideration. As a(2) we could choose 95, 311, ...
