Amiram Eldar, Plot of (1/(n^2*log(log(n))) * Sum_{i=1..n} a(i) for n = A034090(1..6524) (the positions of records; generated using the b-file at A034090).
FORMULA
Limit_{n -> oo} (1/n^2) * Sum_{i=1..n} a(i) = C = 0.7... . [It seems that this limit in fact diverges to infinity; see the first plot in the links section. - Amiram Eldar, Aug 04 2024]
Conjecture: Limit_{n -> oo} (1/(n^2*log(log(n))) * Sum_{i=1..n} a(i) = C = 0.7... . (see the second plot in the links section). - Amiram Eldar, Aug 04 2024
