Superincreasing sequence
In mathematics, a sequence of positive real numbers (s_1, s_2, ...) is called superincreasing if every element of the sequence is greater than the sum of all previous elements in the sequence. Formally, this condition can be written as : s_{n+1} > \sum_{j=1}^n s_j for all n ≥ 1.
