A065190 Self-inverse permutation of the positive integers: 1 is fixed, followed by an infinite number of adjacent transpositions (n n+1). 22

%I #106 Sep 08 2022 08:45:04

%N Self-inverse permutation of the positive integers: 1 is fixed, followed by an infinite number of adjacent transpositions (n n+1).

%C Also, a lexicographically minimal sequence of distinct positive integers such that a(n) is coprime to n. - _Ivan Neretin_, Apr 18 2015

%C The larger term of the pair (a(n), a(n+1)) is always odd. Had we started the sequence with a(1) = 0, it would be the lexicographically first sequence with this property if always extented with the smallest integer not yet present. - _Eric Angelini_, Feb 17 2017

%C From _Yosu Yurramendi_, Mar 21 2017: (Start)

%C This sequence is self-inverse. Except for the fixed point 1, it consists completely of 2-cycles: (2n, 2n+1), n > 0.

%C A020651(a(n)) = A020650(n), A020650(a(n)) = A020651(n), n > 0.

%C A245327(a(n)) = A245328(n), A245328(a(n)) = A245327(n), n > 0.

%C A063946(a(n)) = a(A063946(n)), n > 0.

%C A054429(a(n)) = a(A054429(n)) = A092569(n), n > 0.

%C A258996(a(n)) = a(A258996(n)), n > 0.

%C A258746(a(n)) = a(A258746(n)), n > 0. (End)

%C From _Enrique Navarrete_, Nov 13 2017: (Start)

%C With a(0)=0, and the rest of the sequence appended, a(n) is the smallest positive number not yet in the sequence such that the arithmetic mean of the first n+1 terms a(0), a(1), ..., a(n) is not an integer; i.e., the sequence is 0, 1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 7, 6, 9, 8, ...

%C Example: for n=5, (0 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 5)/5 is not an integer.

%C Fixed points are odd numbers >= 3 and also a(n) = n-2 for even n >= 4. (End)
