The Connell sum sequence
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 10 (2007) no. 2
The Connell sum sequence refers to the partial sums of the Connell sequence. In this paper, the Connell sequence, Connell sum sequence and generalizations from Iannucci and Mills-Taylor are interpreted as sums of elements of triangles, relating them to polygonal number-stuttered arithmetic progressions. The $n$-th element of the Connell sum sequence is established as a sharp upper bound for the value of a gamma-labeling of a graph of size $n$. The limiting behavior and a explicit formula for the Connell $(m,r)$-sum sequence are also given.
