%N a(n) = n + floor(n*r/s) + floor(n*r/t), where r=2^(1/4), s=2^(1/2), t=2^(3/4).

%C The sequences A378142, A328185, A379510, partition the positive integers (A000027), as proved at A184812:

%C A378142: 3,6,10,13,17,21,24,28,32,35,...

%C A328185: 2,5,8,11,14,18,20,23,26,29,,...

%C A379510: 1,4,7,9,12,15,16,19,22,25,27,...

%C For each k in A000027, write "a" if k=A378142(n) for some n, "b" if k=A328185(n) for some n, and "c" if k=A379510(n) for some n. Concatenating these letters for k = 1,2,3,... spells the following infinite word:

%C cbacbacbcabcabccabcbacbacbcabcacbcabcbacbacbcacbacbcabcbacbcabcacbacbcabcabcbcacbacbacbcabcabccbacbacb...

%F a(n) = n + [w*n] + [n/w], where w = 2^(1/4) and [ ] = floor.

%t r=2^(1/4); s=2^(1/2); t=2^(3/4);

%t a[n_]:=n+Floor[n*s/r]+Floor[n*t/r];

%t b[n_]:=n+Floor[n*r/s]+Floor[n*t/s];

%t c[n_]:=n+Floor[n*r/t]+Floor[n*s/t];
