COMMENTS

Write n in binary; list run lengths; add 1 to last run length; make into continued fraction. Sequence gives denominator of fraction obtained.

For n>1: a(n) = if A025480(n-1)<>0 and A025480(n)<>0 then =a(A025480(n-1))+a(A025480(n)) else if A025480(n)=0 then a(A025480(n-1))+0 else 1+a(A025480(n-1));

a(n) = A007305(A054429(n)+2) and a(A054429(n)) = A007305(n+2);

A153036(n) = floor(A007305(n+2)/a(n)). (End)

FORMULA

a(n) = SternBrocotTreeDen(n) # n starting from 1.

EXAMPLE

E.g. 57->111001->[ 3,2,1 ]->[ 3,2,2 ]->3 + 1/(2 + 1/(2) ) = 17/2. For n=1,2,... we get 2, 3/2, 3, 4/3, 5/3, 5/2, 4, 5/4, 7/5, 8/5,...

1; 2,1; 3,3,2,1; 4,5,5,4,3,3,2,1; ....

MAPLE

SternBrocotTreeDen := n -> SternBrocotTreeNum(((3*(2^floor_log_2(n)))-n)-1); # SternBrocotTreeNum given in A007305 and (((3*(2^floor_log_2(n)))-n)-1) is equal to A054429[n].

MATHEMATICA
