Abstract
A Schreier set is a subset of the natural numbers with . It has been known that the sequence , where is the Fibonacci sequence. Generalizing this result, we prove that for all , the sequence , where has a linear recurrence relation of higher order. We investigate further by requiring that , where is the second smallest element of . We prove a linear recurrence relation for the sequence , where and discuss a curious relationship between and .
