A065256 Quintal Queens permutation of N: halve or multiply by 3 (mod 5) each digit (0->0, 1->3, 2->1, 3->4, 4->2) of the base 5 representation of n. 7
0, 3, 1, 4, 2, 15, 18, 16, 19, 17, 5, 8, 6, 9, 7, 20, 23, 21, 24, 22, 10, 13, 11, 14, 12, 75, 78, 76, 79, 77, 90, 93, 91, 94, 92, 80, 83, 81, 84, 82, 95, 98, 96, 99, 97, 85, 88, 86, 89, 87, 25, 28, 26, 29, 27, 40, 43, 41, 44, 42, 30, 33, 31, 34, 32, 45, 48, 46, 49, 47, 35, 38 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; text; internal format)

COMMENTS
All the permutations A004515 and A065256-A065258 consist of the first fixed term ("Queen on the corner") plus infinitely many 4-cycles and they satisfy the "nonattacking queen condition" that p(i+d) <> p(i)+-d for all i and d >= 1.
The corresponding infinite permutation matrix is a scale-invariant fractal (cf. A048647) and any subarray (5^i) X (5^i) (i >= 1) cut from its corner gives a solution to the case n=5^i of the n nonattacking queens on n X n chessboard (A000170). Is there any permutation of N which would give solutions to the queen problem with more frequent intervals than A000351?
