A227500 - OEIS

A227500

a(0)=a(1)=0; for n>1, a(n) = numerator( r(n) ), where r(n) = r(n-1)+r(n-2)+A027641(n-2)/A027642(n-2) and r(0)=r(1)=a(0).

Reduced a(n)/c(n) = 0, 0, 1, 1/2, 5/3, 13/6, 19/5, 179/30, 1028/105, 1103/70, 893/35, 2889/70, 15445/231, 249787/2310,... .

After the first Bernoulli numbers we consider the same transform applied to the second Bernoulli numbers A164555(n)/A027642(n). Hence reduced b(n)/c(n) = 0, 0, 1, 3/2, 8/3, 25/6, 34/5, 329/30, 1868/105, 2013/70, 1628/35, 5269/70, 28150/231, 455377/2310, ....

Conjecture: (b(n)-a(n))/c(n) = 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, ..., that is two 0 followed by A000045.

This conjecture is confirmed up to 100 terms. [Jean-François Alcover, Jul 19 2013]

EXAMPLE

a(2)=1 because r(2)=r(1)+r(0)+A027641(0)/A027642(0)=0+0+1=1;

a(3)=1 because r(3)=r(2)+r(1)+A027641(1)/A027642(1)=1+0-1/2=1/2;

a(4)=5 because r(4)=r(3)+r(2)+A027641(2)/A027642(2)=1+1/2+1/6=5/3.
