%e Here are the first terms of the sequence:

%e 1000,10000,1001,1003,1004,1035,1061,1127,1184,...

%e and here are the cumulative sums:

%e 1000,11000,12001,13004,14008,15043,16104,17231,18415,...

%e If we align a(n) and its cumulative sum, we see that at least four digits are shared:

%e 1000,10000, 1001, 1003, 1004, 1035 ,1061, 1127, 1184,...

%e 1000,11000,12001,13004,14008,15043,16104,17231,18415,...

%Y Cf. A309151 (no digit is shared by the cumulative sum instead of four digits here), A316914 (one digit is shared), A316915 (two digits shared), A326638 (three digits shared), A326640 (five digits shared).
