COMMENTS
Conjecture: a strictly increasing sequence. - J. Lowell, Sep 10 2008
The sequence is strictly increasing because (4*n)' = 4*n + 4*n'. - David Radcliffe, Aug 19 2014
8 is the smallest integer that has a nontrivial trajectory (not going to 0 nor reduced to a fixed point as 4) under A003415, but 15 = A090636(1) has 8 as second term in its trajectory. 20 is the next larger such integer with a distinct trajectory, but has two larger predecessors, cf. A090635. - M. F. Hasler, Nov 27 2019
In general, the trajectory of p^(p+1) under A003415 has a common factor p^p, and divided by p^p it gives the trajectory of p under A129283: n -> n + n'. Here we have the case p = 2 (see A129284 for a(n)/2^2), cf. A129151 and A129152 for p = 3 and 5. - M. F. Hasler, Nov 28 2019

FORMULA
a(n+1) = A003415(a(n)), a(0) = 2^3 = 8.
a(n) = A090636(n+2).
A129251(a(n)) > 0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 07 2007
a(n) = 4*A129284(n). - M. F. Hasler, Nov 27 2019
