Comments

Consider the binary trees illustrated in A252753 and A252755: If we start from any n, computing successive iterations of A253554 until 1 is reached (i.e., we are traversing level by level towards the root of the tree, starting from that vertex of the tree where n is located at), a(n) gives the number of odd numbers encountered on the path (i.e., including both the final 1 and the starting n if it was odd).

Formula

a(n) = A253556(n) + 1.

a(n) = A080791(A252754(n)) + 1. [One more than the number of nonleading 0-bits in A252754(n).]

Other identities.

For all n >= 1:

a(A000040(n)) = n.

For all n >= 2:

a(n) = A000120(A252756(n)). [Binary weight of A252756(n).]

a(n) = A253555(n) - A253559(n).
