Comments

Let u=1+sqrt(2) and v=sqrt(2). Jointly rank {j*u} and {k*v} as in the first comment at A182760; a(n) is the position of n*u.

Is this a shifted version of A126281? - R. J. Mathar, Jan 24 2011

The answer to R. J. Mathar's question is no: A126281 contains 65 while this sequence does not. - L. Edson Jeffery, Sep 02 2014
