Recurrence Problem

A recurrence satisfies [im]http://codecogs.izyba.com/gif.latex?a_%7Bn+1%7D%20%3D%20a_n%20+%20%5Csqrt%7Ba_n+a_%7Bn+1%7D%7D[/im]

a[ss]1[/ss] =1

Obtain an explicit formula for a[ss]n[/ss] i.e. find a function f(n) such that a[ss]n[/ss] = f(n)

edited: first term provided now, sry.

Re: Recurrence Problem

i found first few terms of series
thjey came out to be
1,3,6,10
so
a[ss]n[/ss]-a[ss]n-1[/ss]=ln+c=linear
so
an=quadratic in n
a[ss]n[/ss]=ln[p]2[/p]+mn+c , now put
a1=1
a2=3
a3=6
we l=1,m=1 c=0
hence a[ss]n[/ss]=n(n+1)/2

not a strong proof though

[im]http://codecogs.izyba.com/gif.latex?f%283%29%3Df%282%20%29+3%3D6[/im]

Induction gives [im]http://codecogs.izyba.com/gif.latex?f%28n%29%3Df%28n-1%29+n%20%3Df%28n-2%29+%28n-1%29+n%3Df%28n-3%29+%28n-2%29+%28n-1%29+n[/im]

Continuing like this, we finally have [im]http://codecogs.izyba.com/gif.latex?f%28n%29%3Df%281%29+2+3+4+...+n%3D%5Cfrac%7Bn%28n+1%29%7D%7B2%7D[/im].

Happy xyz?

Re: Recurrence Problem

hey soumik mind ur attitude[16]
after assuming a[ss]n[/ss]=n(n+1)/2
directly put it in recurrence relation ,u will get it true for a[ss]n+1[/ss]
