%C This sequence and A321783 are related to a parametrization of the primitive Pythagorean triples in the tree described in A321768.

%C This sequence is "i" from the construction in A321768. It takes ternary digits of k-1 from most to least significant. Here the result is the same going instead least to most, due to how the relevant matrix product is related to its reversal. As a flat sequence this means a(A351702(n)) = a(n) unchanged. - _Kevin Ryde_, Mar 10 2022

%F Empirically:

%F - T(n, 1) = n + 1,

%F - T(n, (3^(n-1) + 1)/2) = A000129(n + 1),

%F - T(n, 3^(n-1)) = 2 * n.
