A115352 The sequence is the concatenation of finite strings S_0, S_1, S_2, ..., where S_0 = {0} and for k >= 1, S_k is obtained from S_{k-1} by inserting the numbers 2^(k-1) through 2^k-1 after the initial 0. 1

COMMENTS

For example, for k = 3, take S_2 = {0,2,3,1} and insert 2^2 through 2^3-1 after the 0, so that S_3 = {0,4,5,6,7,2,3,1}. The string S_k has length 2^k.

A self-similar fractal sequence.

This is the sequence g_n at the end of Section 2 of Levine's paper. The paper also continues several other sequences that are probably not in the OEIS at present

FORMULA

If n=2^m-1, then a(n)=0; for all other terms, write n in binary, collapse the initial segment of 1's to a single 1 and delete the first 0. For example, a(25)=a(11001)=101=5. - Lionel Levine (levine(AT)Math.Berkeley.EDU), May 04 2006

EXAMPLE

The first few strings S_0, S_1, S_2, ... are as follows:

0

0,1

0,2,3,1

0,4,5,6,7,2,3,1

0,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,4,5,6,7,2,3,1
