COMMENT

A p_k-sequence {x(i)} is one which is strictly monotone increasing,i.e. x(i+1)>x(i) for i=1,2,3,...,n and satisfies the condition that a(k+1)=f(a(k)), for k=1,2,3,...,n-1, where f is a polynomial of degree k with integer coefficients.

EXAMPLE

{1,2,5,14} is a p_1-subsequence of {1,2,3,...,14}, since 2=f(1), 5=f(2) and 14=f(5) where f is the first degree polynomial given by f(x)=3x-1.
