%N A076744 This sequence with the appropriate denominator (product of (2*3^k-3) k=0..n) produces the expected length of shortest nonintersecting path through n points on a Sierpiński Gasket from corner to corner.
%C A076744 I am looking for the asymptotics of this sequence (scaled by the appropriate denominator). I'm convinced that a(n) / n^(1-log(2)/log(3)) -> constant but need to know more about sequence to solve this problem.
