cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Numerators of continued fraction convergents to sqrt(3), for n >= 1.
For the denominators see A002530.
Consider the mapping f(a/b) = (a + 3*b)/(a + b). Taking a = b = 1 to start with and carrying out this mapping repeatedly on each new (reduced) rational number gives the convergents 1/1, 2/1, 5/3, 7/4, 19/11, ... converging to sqrt(3). Sequence contains the numerators. - Amarnath Murthy, Mar 22 2003
In the Murthy comment if we take a = 0, b = 1 then the denominator of the reduced fraction is a(n+1). A083336(n)/a(n+1) converges to sqrt(3). - Mario Catalani (mario.catalani(AT)unito.it), Apr 26 2003
If signs are disregarded, all terms of A002316 appear to be elements of this sequence. - Creighton Dement, Jun 11 2007
2^(-floor(n/2))*(1 + sqrt(3))^n = a(n) + A002530(n)*sqrt(3); integers in the real quadratic number field Q(sqrt(3)). - Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 10 2018
Let T(n) = A000034(n), U(n) = A002530(n), V(n) = a(n), x(n) = U(n)/V(n). Then T(n*m) * U(n+m) = U(n)*V(m) + U(m)*V(n), T(n*m) * V(n+m) = 3*U(n)*U(m) + V(m)*V(n), x(n+m) = (x(n) + x(m))/(1 + 3*x(n)*x(m)). - Michael Somos, Nov 29 2022

Examples

			1 + 1/(1 + 1/(2 + 1/(1 + 1/2))) = 19/11 so a(5) = 19.
Convergents are 1, 2, 5/3, 7/4, 19/11, 26/15, 71/41, 97/56, 265/153, 362/209, 989/571, 1351/780, 3691/2131, ... = A002531/A002530.
G.f. = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 5*x^3 + 7*x^4 + 19*x^5 + 26*x^6 + 71*x^7 + ... - _Michael Somos_, Mar 22 2022
