Examples of Smarandache Partition type sequences: A. 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, .... (How many times is n written as a sum of non-null squares, disregarding the order of the terms: for example: 9 = 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 +22 = 12 + 22 + 22 = 32, therefore ns(9) = 4.) B. 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, ... (How many times is n written as a sum of non-null cubes, disregarding the order of the terms: for example: 9 = 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 = 13 + 23, therefore, nc(9) = 2.) C. General-partition type sequence: Let f be an arithmetic function and R a relation among numbers. (How many times can n be written under the form: n = R(f(n1 ), f(n2 ), ..., f(nk )) for some k and n1 , n2 , ..., nk such that n1 + n2 + . . . + nk = n? } Examples of other sequences: (1) Smarandache Anti-symmetric sequence: 11, 1212, 123123, 12341234, 1234512345, 123456123456, 12345671234567, 1234567812345678, 123456789, 123456789, 1234567891012345678910, 1234567891011, 1234567891011, ... (2) Smarandache Triangular base: 1, 2, 10, 11, 12, 100, 101, 102, 110, 1000, 1001, 1002, 1010, 1011, 10000, 10001, 10002, 10010, 10011, 10012, 100000, 100001, 100002, 100010, 100011, 100012, 100100, 1000000, 1000001, 1000002, 1000010, 1000011, 1000012, 1000100, ... (Numbers written in the triangular base, defined as follows: t(n) = (n(n+1))/2, for n >= 1.) (3) Smarandache Double factorial base: 1, 10, 100, 101, 110, 200, 201, 1000, 1001, 1010, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1200, 10000, 10001, 10010, 10100, 10101, 10110, 10200, 10201, 11000, 11001, 11010, 11100, 11101, 11110, 11200, 11201, 12000, ... (Numbers written in the double factorial base, defined as follows: df(n) = n!!) (4) Smarandache Non-multiplicative sequence: General definition: Let m1, m2, ..., mk be the first k terms of the sequence, where k >= 2; then mi , for i >= k+1, is the smallest number not equal to the product of k previous distinct terms. (5) Smarandache Non-arithmetic progression: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 13, 14, 28, 29, 31, 32, 37, 38, 40, 41, 64, ... General definition: if m1 , m2, are the first two terms of the sequence, then mk , for k >= 3, is the smallest number such that no 3-term arithmetic progression is in the sequence. In our case the first two terms are 1, respectively 2. Generalization: same initial conditions, but no i-term arithmetic progression in the sequence (for a given i >= 3). (6) Smarandache Prime product sequence: 2, 7, 31, 211, 2311, 30031, 510511, 9699691, 223092871, 6469693231, 200560490131, 7420738134811, 304250263527211, ... Pn = 1 + p1 p2 . . . pn , where pk is the k-th prime. Question: How many of them are prime?

Fn = 1 + f1 f2 ...fn , where fk is the k-th factorial number. Question: How many of them are prime? (10) Smarandache U-product sequence {generalization}: Let un , n >= 1, be a positive integer sequence. Then we define a U-sequence as follows: Un = 1 + u1 u2 . . . un . (11) Smarandache Non-geometric progression. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 45, 47, 48, 50, 51, 53, . . . General definition: if m1 ,m2, are the first two terms of the sequence, then mk, for k >= 3, is the smallest number such that no 3-term geometric progression is in the sequence. In our case the first two terms are 1, respectively 2. (12) Smarandache Unary sequence: 11, 111, 11111, 1111111, 11111111111, 1111111111111, 1111111111111111, 1111111111111111111, 11111111111111111111111, 11111111111111111111111111111, 1111111111111111111111111111111, ... u(n) = 11...1, pn digits of "1", where pn is the n-th prime.
