When n > 0 is written as k*2^j with k odd then k = A000265(n) and j = A007814(n), so: when n is written as k*2^j - 1 with k odd then k = A000265(n+1) and j = A007814(n+1), when n > 1 is written as k*2^j + 1 with k odd then k = A000265(n-1) and j = A007814(n-1).
Slope of line connecting (o, a(o)) where o = (2^k)(n-1) + 1 is 2^k and (by design) starts at (1, 1). - Josh Locker (joshlocker(AT)macfora.com), Apr 17 2004
"The sequence can be arranged in a table:
1
1 3 1
1 5 3 7 1
1 9 5 11 3 13 7 15 1
1 17 9 19 5 21 11 23 3 25 13 27 7 29 15 31 1
Every new row is the previous row interspaced with the continuation of the odd numbers.
Except for the ones; the terms (t) in each column are t+t+/-s = t_+1. Starting from the center column of threes and working to the left the values of s are given by A000265 and working to the right by A000265." (End)
This is a fractal sequence. The odd-numbered elements give the odd natural numbers. If these elements are removed, the original sequence is recovered. - Kerry Mitchell, Dec 07 2005
2k + 1 is the k-th and largest of the subsequence of k terms separating two successive equal entries in a(n). - Lekraj Beedassy, Dec 30 2005
It's not difficult to show that the sum of the first 2^n terms is (4^n + 2)/3. - Nick Hobson, Jan 14 2005
In the table, for each row, (sum of terms between 3 and 1) - (sum of terms between 1 and 3) = A020988. - Eric Desbiaux, May 27 2009
This sequence appears in the analysis of A160469 and A156769, which resemble the numerator and denominator of the Taylor series for tan(x). - Johannes W. Meijer, May 24 2009
With regard to the tabular presentation described in the comment by Marco Matosic: in his drawing, starting with the 3rd row, the first term in the row, which is equal to 1 (or, alternatively the last term in the row, which is also equal to 1), is not in the actual sequence and is added to the drawing as a fictitious term (for the sake of symmetry); an actual A000265(n) could be considered to be a(j,k) (where j >= 1 is the row number and k>=1 is the column subscript), such that a(j,1) = 1:
1
1 3
1 5 3 7
1 9 5 11 3 13 7 15
1 17 9 19 5 21 11 23 3 25 13 27 7 29 15 31
and so on ... .
The relationship between k and j for each row is 1 <= k <= 2^(j-1). In this corrected tabular representation, Marco's notion that "every new row is the previous row interspaced with the continuation of the odd numbers" remains true. (End)
Partitions natural numbers to the same equivalence classes as A064989. That is, for all i, j: a(i) = a(j) <=> A064989(i) = A064989(j). There are dozens of other such sequences (like A003602) for which this also holds: In general, all sequences for which a(2n) = a(n) and the odd bisection is injective. - Antti Karttunen, Apr 15 2017
This sequence is the truncated triangle:
1, 1;
3, 1, 5;
3, 7, 1, 9;
5, 11, 3, 13, 7;
15, 1, 17, 9, 19, 5;
21, 11, 23, 3, 25, 13, 27;
7, 29, 15, 31, 1, 33, 17, 35;
...
c(n) = ((n*(n+1)/2))/A069834 = 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 4, 4, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 8, 8, 1, 1, ... for n > 0. n*(n+1)/2 is the rank of A069834. (End)
As well as being multiplicative, a(n) is a strong divisibility sequence, that is, gcd(a(n),a(m)) = a(gcd(n,m)) for n, m >= 1. In particular, a(n) is a divisibility sequence: if n divides m then a(n) divides a(m). - Peter Bala, Feb 27 2019
