COMMENTS

Form a tree of fractions by beginning with 1/1 and then giving every node i/j two descendants labeled i/(i+j) and j/(i+j).

FORMULA

a(n) = a([n/2]) + A093873([n/2]).

EXAMPLE

The first few fractions are:

1 1 1 1 2 1 2 1 3 2 3 1 3 2 3 1 4 3 4 2 5 3 5 1 4 3 4 2 5 3 5

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ...

1 2 2 3 3 3 3 4 4 5 5 4 4 5 5 5 5 7 7 7 7 8 8 5 5 7 7 7 7 8 8

MATHEMATICA

num[1] = num[2] = 1; den[1] = 1; den[2] = 2; num[n_?EvenQ] := num[n] = num[n/2]; den[n_?EvenQ] := den[n] = num[n/2] + den[n/2]; num[n_?OddQ] := num[n] = den[(n-1)/2]; den[n_?OddQ] := den[n] = num[(n-1)/2] + den[(n-1)/2]; A093875 = Table[den[n], {n, 1, 83}] (* From Jean-François Alcover, Dec 16 2011 *)

CROSSREFS

The numerators are in A093875. Usually one only considers the left-hand half of the tree, which gives the fractions A020651/A086592. See A086592 for more information, references to Kepler, etc.

Sequence in context: A101402 A156251 A116458 * A114214 A196383 A074198

Adjacent sequences:  A093872 A093873 A093874 * A093876 A093877 A093878
