The increasing complementary sequences a() and b() are uniquely determined by the titular equation and initial value. Let x = (5 - sqrt(5))/2 and y = (5 + sqrt(5))/2. Let r = y - 2 = golden ratio (A001622). It appears that

2 - r <= n*x - a(n) < r and 2 - r < b(n) - n*y < r for all n >= 1.

			a(1) = 1, so b(1) = 5 - a(1) = 4. In order for a() and b() to be increasing and complementary, we have a(2) = 2, a(3) = 3, a(4) = 5, etc.
