AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding a formula for a non-finite subsequence derived from the first 125,256 terms of a sequence of natural numbers. The poster indicates that the distribution is not linear and is skeptical about it being polynomial, suggesting it may involve a root function. The sequence is defined by the indices where the local maxima occur in the magnitudes of partial sums of a complex-valued series. Contributors are asked for effective methods to derive the desired formula. The inquiry highlights the complexity of identifying patterns in sequences based on specific mathematical properties.

I currently have the first 125,256 terms of a sequence of natural numbers. I need to find a formula for any non-finite sub-sequence.

Are there any good methods for obtaining such a formula? I can already say that it isn't a linear distribution, and I highly doubt it being polynomial (although it could involve a root function).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

How did you get the sequence?
 
The sequence is the set of n's where | ∑_{k=0}^{n} a_{k}z^{k} | is a local maximum in the sequence of the magnitudes of partial sums (the partial sums are complex valued).
 
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
