COMMENTS
These could be called "asymmetric bit strings".
Fixed pairs of A057889, complement of A057890.
If these numbers are converted to their binary polynomial, one of the roots of that polynomial will have absolute values other than 1 or 0. For example 11 = 2^3 + 2^1 + 2^0, the absolute values of the roots of x^3 + x + 1 are 0.682328... and 1.21061... which are not 1 or 0, so 11 is in the sequence. The first number with this property which is not a term is A057890(53) = 107. - Benedict W. J. Irwin, Sep 07 2017 and Andrey Zabolotskiy, Oct 13 2017

FORMULA
A030101(A030101(n)) != A030101(n). - David Wilson, Jun 09 2009, Jun 18 2009
A178225(A000265(a(n))) = 0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Oct 21 2011
EXAMPLE
11 is included because 1011 is asymmetrical, but 12 is not because 001100 is a palindrome.
