%N Trajectory of 11 under the map n -> A098550(n).

%C It is believed that n -> A098550(n) is a permutation of the natural numbers. 1,2,3,4 are fixed points (cf. A251411), and there are cycles (5,9), (6,8,14,16,10), and (7,15). 11 is the smallest number whose trajectory is not presently known (and is probably infinite).

%C _Hans Havermann_ has found that 1470 is in a cycle of length 30, and 1772 is in a cycle of length 84.
