Treasures from the OEIS Plot 2

75 Views Asked by At

The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences provide us a tool with the link Plot 2. With this tool one can perform comparisons between two different sequences of positive integers.

In number theory seems that there are some remarkable questions when one works with a sequence $A(n)$ of positive integers: defining and studying its arithmetic mean and as a consequence the average order of $A(n)$; the order or magnitude of $A(n)$, or some notion of density for the terms of our sequence $A(n)$ (for example defining an asymptotic density, or well studying how fast goes to infinite $\sum_{n=1}^N\frac{1}{n}$ versus $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{1}{n^2}<\infty$, more examples with primes or different sequences of positive integers are well known). Also as an aside aslo if the terms of our sequence of positive integers satisfy remarkable congruences, recurrences or diophantine equations.

Question. I would like to know if comparing a well known sequence of positive integers $A(n)$ with a little-known sequence of positive integers $\hat{A}(n)$ you can tranfer some remarkable knowledges from $A(n)$ to $\hat{A}(n)$ using this tool Plot 2. Is it feasible? If yes, how does work your example? That is, how do you explore a little-known sequence $hat{A}(n)$ from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences using Plot 2 by means of a comparison with a well known $A(n)$? Thanks in advance.

Only are required didactic tips, but if for your example you can set good statements or conjectures using this tool Plot 2, it is appreciated. In your example feel free to change your input $A(n)$ to make multiple comparisons but always for a same $\hat{A}(n)$.
