Even bisection gives sequence a itself, n->a(2*(2*n+k)-1) gives k-th differences of a for k=1..2 with a(n)=n for n<2.

FORMULA
a(2*n) = a(n),
a(4*n+1) = a(n+1) - a(n),
a(4*n+3) = a(n+2) - 2*a(n+1) + a(n).
MAPLE
a:= proc(n) option remember; local m, q, r;
m:= (irem(n, 4, 'q')+1)/2;
`if`(n<2, n, `if`(irem(n, 2, 'r')=0, a(r),
add(a(q+m-j)*(-1)^j*binomial(m, j), j=0..m)))
end:
seq(a(n), n=0..100);
