%N The number m such that A001950(m) = A003231(A003234(n)).

%F From _Eric M. Schmidt_, Aug 14 2014: (Start)

%F a(n) = ceiling((1/phi^2) * A003231(A003234(n))), where phi is the golden ratio.

%F a(n) = 5*k - 1 - A003231(k), where k = A003234(n). [Cf. Theorems 4.1(ii) and 5.9(vii) in Carlitz.]

%F Conjecture: a(n) = floor((3-phi)*A003234(n)).
