COMMENTS

It seems that lim n ->infinity a(n)/n = 0,2... << (ln(4)-ln(3))/ln(2) = 0,415... the expected density of 1's (cf. measure theory of continued fraction)

EXAMPLE

The continued fraction of (3/2)^24 is [16834, 8, 1, 10, 2, 25, 1, 3, 1, 1, 57, 6] which contains 4 "1's", hence a(24)=4

PROG

(PARI) for(n=1, 200, s=contfrac(frac((3/2)^n)); print1(sum(i=1, length(s), if(1-component(s, i), 0, 1)), ", "))

CROSSREFS

Cf. A071337, A071316, A071315, A071529.
