In this paper we study the asymptotic properties of the sequence of integer
s g(n), defined by the following recurrence relation:
g(n + 1) = [(1 + alpha/n-alpha)g(n)],
where alpha > 0 and [x] denotes the largest integer not greater than x. For
any alpha > 0, the limit g(n)/n(alpha) exists. We prove that for alpha = 2
, this limit is always rational. For alpha = 3, we give some sufficient con
ditions which guarantee that the limit is rational.
