A080426 a(1)=1, a(2)=3; all terms are either 1 or 3; each run of 3's is followed by a run of two 1's; and a(n) is the length of the n-th run of 3's. 10

%N a(1)=1, a(2)=3; all terms are either 1 or 3; each run of 3's is followed by a run of two 1's; and a(n) is the length of the n-th run of 3's.

%C It appears that the sequence can be calculated by any of the following three methods: (1) Start with 1 and repeatedly replace (simultaneously) all 1's with 1,3,1 and all 3's with 1,3,3,3,1. [Equivalently, trajectory of 1 under the morphism 1 -> 1,3,1; 3 -> 1,3,3,3,1. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 03 2019] (2) a(n)= A026490(2n). (3) Replace each 2 in A026465 (run lengths in Thue-Morse) with 3.

%C Length of n-th run of 1's in the Feigenbaum sequence A035263 = 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, .... - _Philippe Deléham_, Apr 18 2004

%C Another construction. Let S_0 = 1, and let S_n be obtained by applying the morphism 1 -> 3, 3 -> 113 to S_{n-1}. The sequence is the concatenation S_0, S_1, S_2, ... - D. R. Hofstadter, Oct 23 2014

%C a(n+1) is the number of times n appears in A003160. - _John Keith_, Dec 31 2020
