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”).

Decimal expansion of the fixed point c = S(c) of S(x) = Sum_{k>=1} (prime(k) - x) / Product_{i=1..k-1} prime(i).

%N Decimal expansion of the fixed point c = S(c) of S(x) = Sum_{k>=1} (prime(k) - x) / Product_{i=1..k-1} prime(i).

%C S(x) = (1-x)*(1+A064648) + A249270 is linear so the fixed point is unique.

%C With this constant as h(1) = c, sequence h(n+1) = ceiling(h(n)) * (h(n) - ceiling(h(n)) + c) is real numbers with the property that ceiling(h(n)) = prime(n).

%F Equals (A249270 + A064648 + 1)/(A064648 + 2).
