%N Rows of Sierpiński's triangle (Pascal's triangle mod 2).
%C The rows of Sierpiński's triangle, read as numbers in binary representation, are products of distinct Fermat numbers, row 0 being the empty product. (See also the comment in A080176.)
%C Rows 1 to 31 are the binary representation of the 31 (2^5-1) nonempty products of distinct Fermat primes, giving the number of sides of constructible (with straightedge and compass) odd-sided polygons. - _Daniel Forgues_, Jun 21 2011
%C Sierpiński's triangles typically refer to any finite triangle with rows 0 to 2^n-1 so as to get complete triangles, with n at least 4 so as to show the fractal-like pattern of nested triangles. We may consider these finite Sierpiński's triangles as finite parts of "the" infinite Sierpiński's triangle, so to speak. - _Daniel Forgues_, Jun 22 2011
%C Also, binary representation of the n-th iteration of the "Rule 60" elementary cellular automaton starting with a single ON (black) cell. - _Robert Price_, Feb 21 2016
%C a(n) is the concatenation of the coefficients of (x+1)^n in GF(2)[x]. - _Thomas Anton_, Oct 04 2022

%F From _Daniel Forgues_, Jun 20-21 2011: (Start)
%F In the following formulas, [...]_2 means converted to base 2.
%F a(n) = [Sum_{i=0..n} (binomial(n,i) mod 2) 2^i]_2, n >= 0.
%F From row n, 0 <= n <= 2^k - 1, k >= 0, being
%F a(n) = [Product_{i=0..k-1} (F_i)^(alpha_i)]_2, alpha_i in {0, 1},
%F where for k = 0, we get the empty product, i.e., 1, giving a(0) = 1,
%F we induce from the triangle that row 2^k + n, 0 <= n <= 2^k - 1, is
%F a(2^k + n) = a(n)*[F_k]_2, k >= 0.
%F Denton Hewgill's identity (cf. links):
%F a(n) = [Product_{i>=0} (F_i)^(floor(n/2^i) mod 2)]_2, F_i = 2^(2^i)+1.
%F a(0) = 1; a(n) = [Product_{i=0..floor(log_2(n))} (F_i)^(floor(n/2^i) mod 2)]_2, F_i = 2^(2^i)+1, n >= 1. (End)
%F From _Vladimir Shevelev_, Dec 26-27 2013: (Start)
%F Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n)^r = Product_{k>=0} (1 + 1/(10^(2^k)+1)^r),
%F Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^A000120(n)/a(n)^r = Product_{k>=0} (1 - 1/(10^(2^k)+1)^r), where r > 0 is a real number.
%F In particular,
%F Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = Product_{k>=0} (1 + 1/(10^(2^k)+1)) = 1.10182034...;
%F Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^A000120(n)/a(n) = 0.9;
%F a(2^n) = 10^(2^n) + 1, n >= 0.
%F Note that analogs of Stephan's limit formulas (see Shevelev link) reduce to the relations a(2^t*n+2^(t-1)) = 99*(10^(2^(t-1)+1))/(10^(2^(t-1))-1) * a(2^t*n+2^(t-1)-2), t >= 2. In particular, for t=2,3,4, we have the following formulas:
%F a(4*n+2) = 101*a(4*n);
%F a(8*n+4) = (10001/101)*a(8*n+2);
%F a(16*n+8) = (100000001/1010101)*(16*n+6), etc. (End)
%F From _Tom Edgar_, Oct 11 2015: (Start)
%F a(2*n+1) = 11*a(2*n).
%F a(n) = Product_{b_j != 0} a(2^j) where n = Sum_{j>=0} b_j*2^j is the binary representation of n.
