COMMENTS

If p(x) is a fixed point then P(x):=(x+x^2)*p(x) and P(x)+1 are also fixed points.

EXAMPLE

a(4)=8 corresponds to the polynomial p(x)=x^4+x (18 is 10010 in binary).

p(x+1) = (x+1)^4 + (x+1) = x^4 + 4*x^3 + 6*x^2 + 5*x + 2 = x^4+x = p(x)

PROG

/* C++ function that returns a unique fixed point for each argument: */

ulong A(ulong s)

{

  if ( 0==s ) return 0;

  ulong f = 1;

  while ( s>1 ) { f ^= (f<<1); f <<= 1; f |= (s&1); s >>= 1; }

  return f;

}

/* the elements are not produced in increasing order, but as follows:

  0 1 6 7 20 18 21 19 120 108 126 106 121 109 127 107 272 360 ... */
