COMMENTS
Informally, write down 1 followed by 2^k 2^(k-1) times, for k = 1,2,3,4,... These are the denominators of the van der Corput sequence (see A030109). - N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 01 2019
a(n) is the denominator of the form 2^k needed to make the ratio (2n-1)/2^k lie in the interval [1-2], i.e. such ratios are 1/1, 3/2, 5/4, 7/4, 9/8, 11/8, 13/8, 15/8, 17/16, 19/16, 21/16, ... where the numerators are A005408 (The odd numbers).
Let A_n be the upper triangular matrix in the group GL(n,2) that has zero entries below the diagonal and 1 elsewhere. For example for n=4 the matrix is / 1,1,1,1 / 0,1,1,1 / 0,0,1,1 / 0,0,0,1 /. The order of this matrix as an element of GL(n,2) is a(n-1). - Ahmed Fares (ahmedfares(AT)my-deja.com), Jul 14 2001
A006257(n)/a(n) = (0, 0.1, 0.01, 0.11, 0.001, ...) enumerates all binary fractions in the unit interval [0, 1). - Fredrik Johansson, Aug 14 2006
a(n) = maximum of row n+1 in A240769. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 13 2014
This is the discriminator sequence for the odious numbers. - N. J. A. Sloane, May 10 2016
