COMMENTS

Sequence A058042 written in base 10. 22 is the smallest number whose base 2 trajectory does not contain a palindrome.

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = 2 for n mod 2 = 0.

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = 1 for n mod 2 = 1.

FORMULA

a(0) = 22; a(1) = 35; for n > 1 and n = 2 (mod 4): a(n) = 6*2^(2*k)-3*2^k where k = (n+6)/4; n = 3 (mod 4): a(n) = 6*2^(2*k)+3*2^k-3 where k = (n+5)/4; n = 0 (mod 4): a(n) = 12*2^(2*k)-3*2^k where k = (n+4)/4; n = 1 (mod 4): a(n) = 12*2^(2*k)+9*2^k-3 where k = (n+3)/4.
