COMMENTS

A000034 = 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, ... = continued fraction for (sqrt(3)+1)/2 (cf. A040001) = base 3 digital root of n+1. In general, the ascending descending base exponent transform of any simple periodic sequence can be written as a periodic set of interleaved sequences.

FORMULA

a(n) = SUM[from i = 1 to n] (A000034(i))^(A000034(n-i+1)). a(2n) = 3n. a(2n+1) = 5n+1.

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 1^1 = 1.

a(2) = 1^2 + 2^1 = 3.

a(3) = 1^1 + 2^2 + 1^1 = 6.

a(4) = 1^2 + 2^1 + 1^2 + 2^1 = 6.

a(5) = 1^1 + 2^2 + 1^1 + 2^2 + 1^1 = 11.

a(6) = 1^2 + 2^1 + 1^2 + 2^1 + 1^2 + 2^1 = 9.
