On Curling Numbers of Integer Sequences
Benjamin Chaffin, John P. Linderman, N. J. A. Sloane +1
Given a finite nonempty sequence S of integers, write it as XY^k, where Y^k is a power of greatest exponent that is a suffix of S: this k is the curling number of S. The Curling Nu…

A Slow-Growing Sequence Defined by an Unusual Recurrence
Fokko J. van de Bult, Dion C. Gijswijt, John P. Linderman +2
The sequence starts with a(1) = 1; to extend it one writes the sequence so far as XY^k, where X and Y are strings of integers, Y is nonempty and k is as large as possible: then the…
