Ordinal transform of A003603. Removing all 1's from this sequence and decrementing the remaining numbers generates the original sequence. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Aug 10 2012
It can be shown that a(n) is the index of the smallest Fibonacci number used in the Zeckendorf representation of n, where f(0)=f(1)=1. - Rachel Chaiser, Aug 18 2017
The asymptotic density of the occurrences of k = 1, 2, ..., is (2-phi)/phi^(k-1), where phi is the golden ratio (A001622). The asymptotic mean of this sequence is 1 + phi (A104457). - Amiram Eldar, Nov 02 2023

FORMULA
The segment between the first M and the first M+1 is given by the segment before the first M-1.
a(n) = v2(A022340(n)), where v2(n) = A007814(n), the dyadic valuation of n. - Ralf Stephan, Jun 20 2004. In other words, a(n) = A007814(A003714(n)) + 1, which is certainly true. - Don Reble, Nov 12 2005
From Rachel Chaiser, Aug 18 2017: (Start)
a(n) = a(p(n))+1 if n = b(p(n)) where p(n) = floor((n+2)/phi)-1 and b(n) = floor((n+1)*phi)-1 where phi=(1+sqrt(5))/2; a(n)=1 otherwise.
a(n) = 3 - n_1 + s_z(n-1) - s_z(n) + s_z(p(n-1)) - s_z(p(n)), where s_z(n) is the Zeckendorf sum of digits of n (A007895), and n_1 is the least significant digit in the Zeckendorf representation of n. (End)
EXAMPLE
After the first 6 we see "1 2 3 1 4 1 2" then 7.
MATHEMATICA
f[1] = {1}; f[2] = {1, 2}; f[n_] := f[n] = Join[f[n-1], Most[f[n-2]], {n}]; f[11] (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 22 2012 *)
