A058842 From Renyi's "beta expansion of 1 in base 3/2": sequence gives a(1), a(2), ... where x(n) = a(n)/2^n, with 0 < a(n) < 2^n, a(1) = 1, a(n) = 3*a(n-1) modulo 2^n. +0

COMMENT

Let r be a real number strictly between 1 and 2, x any real number between 0 and 1; define y = (y(i)) by x(0) = x; x(i+1) = r*x(i)-1 if r*x(i)>1 and r*x(i) otherwise; y(i) = integer part of x(i+1): y = (y(i)) is an infinite word on the alphabet (0,1). Here we take r = 3/2 and x = 1.

It seems that the sequence x(n) = a(n)/2^n which satisfies 0<x(n)<1 is not equidistributed in (0,1) and perhaps lim n -> infinity sum(k=1,n,x(k))/n = C < 0.4 < 1/2 - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Aug 27 2002

FORMULA

Let x(1)=1 x(n+1)=(3/2)*x(n) -floor((3/2)*x(n)); then a(n)=x(n)*2^n - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Aug 27 2002
