COMMENTS

Distance to next number of form 2^k-1, written down in binary, then interpreted as ternary. Thus the numbers have no 2 in ternary representation.

FORMULA

a(1)=0, a(2n) = 3a(n)+1, a(2n+1) = 3a(n).

a(n) = 1/2*(3^(floor(log2(n))+1)-1) - A005836(n).

PROG

(PARI) for(n=1, 100, l=ceil(log(n)/log(2)):t=polcoeff(1/(1-x)*sum(k=0, l, 3^k*(x^2^(k+1))/(1+x^2^k)), n):print1(t", "))
