COMMENTS
This is a permutation of natural numbers induced when "noncrossing handshakes", i.e., Stanley's interpretation (n), "n nonintersecting chords joining 2n points on the circumference of a circle", are rotated.
The same permutation is induced when the root position of plane trees (Stanley's interpretation (e)) is successively changed around the vertices.
For a good illustration how the rotation of the root vertex works, please see the Figure 6, "Rotation of an ordered rooted tree" in Torsten Mütze's paper (on page 24 in 20 May 2014 revision).
For yet another application of this permutation, please see the attached notes for A085197.
By "recursivizing" either the left or right hand side argument of A085201 in the formula, one ends either with A057161 or A057503. By "recursivizing" the both sides, one ends with A057505. - Antti Karttunen, Jun 06 2014

FORMULA
a(0) = 0, and for n>=1, a(n) = A085201(A072771(n), A057548(A072772(n))). [This formula reflects directly the given non-destructive Lisp/Scheme function: A085201 is a 2-ary function corresponding to 'append', A072771 and A072772 correspond to 'car' and 'cdr' (known also as first/rest or head/tail in some dialects), and A057548 corresponds to unary form of function 'list'].
As a composition of related permutations:
a(n) = A057509(A069770(n)).
a(n) = A057163(A069773(A057163(n))).
Invariance-identities:
A129599(a(n)) = A129599(n) holds for all n.

PROG
(Scheme functions implementing this automorphism on S-expressions, "constructive" and "destructive" variants):
(define (*A057501 s) (cond ((null? s) (list)) (else (append (car s) (list (cdr s))))))
(define (*A057501! s) (cond ((pair? s) (*A074680! s) (*A057501! (cdr s)))) s)
;; A version working directly on nonnegative integers (definec is a memoization macro from Antti Karttunen's IntSeq-library):
(definec (A057501 n) (if (zero? n) n (A085201bi (A072771 n) (A057548 (A072772 n))))) ;; A085201bi, see: A085201.
CROSSREFS
Inverse: A057502.
Also, a "SPINE"-transform of A074680, and thus occurs as row 17 of A122203. (Also as row 65167 of A130403.)
Successive powers of this permutation, a^2(n) - a^6(n): A082315, A082317, A082319, A082321, A082323.
