A258746 Permutation of the positive integers: this permutation transforms the enumeration system of positive irreducible fractions A007305/A047679 (Stern-Brocot) into the enumeration system A162909/A162910 (Bird), and vice versa.

Comments

As A117120 the permutation is self-inverse. Except for fixed points 1, 2, 3 it consists completely of 2-cycles: (4,5), (6,7), (8,10), (9,11), (12,14), (13,15), (16,21), (17,20), ..., (24,29), ..., (32,42), ... .

Formula

a(1) = 1, a(2) = 2, a(3) = 3. For n >= 2, m = floor(log_2(n)). If m even, then a(2*n) = 2*a(n) and a(2*n+1) = 2*a(n)+1. If m odd, then a(2*n) = 2*a(n)+1 and a(2*n+1) = 2*a(n).

A258996(a(n)) = a(A258996(n)) for n > 0;

A117120(a(n)) = a(A117120(n)) for n > 0;

A092569(a(n)) = a(A092569(n)) for n > 0;

A063946(a(n)) = a(A063946(n)) for n > 0;

A054429(a(n)) = a(A054429(n)) = A165199(n) for n > 0;

A065190(a(n)) = a(A065190(n)) for n > 0. (End)
