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”).

%N Lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct positive numbers such that a(1) = 1, a(2) = 2, and for n > 2, a(n) divides Sum_{i = n-k..n-1} a(i) with k > 0 as small as possible.
%C When computing a(n) for n > 2, there may be candidates for different values of k; we choose the candidate that minimizes k.
%C This sequence is an infinite variant of A085947; a(n) = A085947(n) for n = 1..39.

%F a(n) <= Sum_{k = 1..n-1} a(k) for any n > 2.
%e For n = 3:
%e - the divisors of a(2) = 2 are all already in the sequence,
%e - 3 is the least divisor of a(1) + a(2) = 1 + 2 = 3 not yet in the sequence,
%e - so a(3) = 3.
%e For n = 4:
%e - the divisors of a(3) = 3 are all already in the sequence,
%e - 5 is the least divisor of a(2) + a(3) = 2 + 3 = 5 not yet in the sequence,
%e - so a(3) = 5.
%e For n = 5:
%e - the divisors of a(4) = 5 are all already in the sequence,
%e - 4 is the least divisor of a(3) + a(4) = 3 + 5 = 8 not yet in the sequence,
%e - so a(5) = 4.
