A self-inverse permutation of the natural numbers.
a(n)=n if and only if A081242(n) is a palindrome. - Clark Kimberling, Mar 12 2003
a(n) is the position in B of the reversal of the n-th term of B, where B is the left-to-right binary enumeration sequence (A081242 with the empty word attached as first term). - Clark Kimberling, Mar 12 2003

When certain Stern-Brocot tree-related permutations are conjugated with this permutation, they induce a permutation on Z (folded to N), which is an infinite siteswap permutation (see, e.g., figure 7 in the Buhler and Graham paper, which is permutation A065174). We get:
A065260(n) = a(A057115(a(n))),
A065266(n) = a(A065264(a(n))),
A065272(n) = a(A065270(a(n))),
A065278(n) = a(A065276(a(n))),
A065284(n) = a(A065282(a(n))),
A065290(n) = a(A065288(a(n))). (End)
Every nonnegative integer has a unique representation c(1) + c(2)*2 + c(3)*2^2 + c(4)*2^3 + ..., where every c(i) is 0 or 1. Taking tuples of coefficients in lexical order (i.e., 0, 1; 01,11; 001,011,101,111; ...) yields A059893. - Clark Kimberling, Mar 15 2015

The reduced rationals can be ordered either as the Calkin-Wilf tree A002487(n)/A002487(n+1) or the Stern-Brocot tree A007305(n+2)/A047679(n). The present sequence gives the order of matching rationals in the other sequence.
For reference, the Calkin-Wilf tree is 1, 1/2, 2, 1/3, 3/2, 2/3, 3, 1/4, 4/3, 3/5, 5/2, 2/5, 5/3, 3/4, 4, 1/5, 5/4, 4/7, 7/3, 3/8, 8/5, 5/7, 7/2, 2/7, 7/5, 5/8, 8/3, 3/7, 7/4, 4/5, ..., which is A002487(n)/A002487(n+1).
The Stern-Brocot tree is 1, 1/2, 2, 1/3, 2/3, 3/2, 3, 1/4, 2/5, 3/5, 3/4, 4/3, 5/3, 5/2, 4, 1/5, 2/7, 3/8, 3/7, 4/7, 5/8, 5/7, 4/5, 5/4, 7/5, 8/5, 7/4, 7/3, 8/3, 7/2, ..., which is A007305(n+2)/A047679(n).
There is a great little OEIS-is-useful story here. I had code for the position of fractions in the Calkin-Wilf tree. The best I had for positions of fractions in the Stern-Brocot tree was the paper "Locating terms in the Stern-Brocot tree" by Bruce Bates, Martin Bunder, Keith Tognetti. The method was opaque to me, so I used my Calkin-Wilf code on the Stern-Brocot fractions, and got A059893. And thus the problem was solved. (End)

FORMULA
a(n) = A030109(n) + A053644(n). If 2*2^k <= n < 3*2^k then a(n) = 2*a(n-2^k); if 3*2^k <= n < 4*2^k then a(n) = 1 + a(n-2^k) starting with a(1)=1. - Henry Bottomley, Sep 13 2001
EXAMPLE
a(11) = a(1011) = 1110 = 14.
With empty word e prefixed, A081242 becomes (e,1,2,11,21,12,22,111,211,121,221,112,...); (reversal of term #9) = (term #12); i.e., a(9)=12 and a(12)=9. - Clark Kimberling, Mar 12 2003
