Comments

4, 5, 6, 8, 9 never appear in any of these numbers because in each case there is a smaller digit with the same number of e's. 2 (the smallest number with no e's) never appears in any term after a(0). - Sean A. Irvine, Nov 10 2009
A085513(a(n)) = n and A085513(m) != n for m < a(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 24 2015

Formula

From Chai Wah Wu, Dec 20 2019: (Start)
a(n) = a(n-1) + 1000*a(n-7) - 1000*a(n-8) for n > 9 (conjectured).
G.f.: (-1000*x^9 + 3000*x^8 - 1800*x^7 + 6*x^6 + 94*x^5 + 6*x^4 + 8*x^3 + 3*x^2 - 2*x + 2)/((x - 1)*(1000*x^7 - 1)) (conjectured). (End)
