The sequence produced by repeatedly applying t->(1+t,-1/t), starting from {1} and discarding numbers produced earlier, might be called Fibonacci or rabbit ordering of the rationals, in analogy to that ordering of the positive rationals, with t -> (1+t,1/t).

Examples

			The terms produced as described above are (grouped by iteration, including the starting value 1 = iteration 0): [1], [2, -1], [3, -1/2, 0], [4, -1/3, 1/2], [5, -1/4, 2/3, 3/2, -2], [6, -1/5, 3/4, 5/3, -3/2, 5/2, -2/3],[7, -1/6, 4/5, 7/4, -4/3, 8/3, -3/5, 7/2, -2/5, 1/3],[8, -1/7, 5/6, 9/5, -5/4, 11/4, -4/7, 11/3, -3/8, 2/5, 9/2, -2/7, 3/5, 4/3, -3], ...

Comments

An analog of the Fibonacci ordering of the positive rationals (cf. A226080) is the sequence of rationals produced from the initial vector [1] by appending iteratively the new rationals obtained by applying the map t-> (t+1, -1/t) to each term of the vector (cf. example).
It is seen that the unit fraction 1/n appears as the last term produced in the (3n-3)th iteration, therefore the indices a(n) equal every third terms in the partial sums of A226275 (= new terms produced during the respective iteration), cf. formula.

Examples

			Starting with [1], applying the map t->(1+t,-1/t) to the (most recently obtained) vector and discarding the numbers occurring earlier, one gets the sequence (grouped by "generation"): [1], [2, -1], [3, -1/2, 0], [4, -1/3, 1/2], [5, -1/4, 2/3, 3/2, -2], [6, -1/5, 3/4, 5/3, -3/2, 5/2, -2/3], [7, -1/6, 4/5, 7/4, -4/3, 8/3, -3/5, 7/2, -2/5, 1/3], [8, -1/7, 5/6, 9/5, -5/4, 11/4, -4/7, 11/3, -3/8, 2/5, 9/2, -2/7, 3/5, 4/3, -3],...
The unit fractions 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4,... occur at positions 1, 9(=1+2+3+3), 31(=9+5+7+10), 100(=31+15+22+32), ...
