a(n) is the index of F(n+1) at the unique occurrence of the ordered pair of reversed consecutive terms (F(n+1),F(n)) in Stern's diatomic sequence A002487, where F(k) denotes the k-th term of the Fibonacci sequence A000045.

COMMENTS

If the Fibonacci pairs are kept in the natural order (F(n),F(n+1)), it appears that the first term of the pair occurs in A002487 at the index given by A061547(n).
Starting at n=3, begin subtracting from (2^(n-1)-1)/2^(n-1): 3/4 - 1/2 = 1/4 with 1+4=5=a(3); 7/8 - 1/4 = 5/8 with 5+8=13=a(4); 15/16 - 5/8 = 5/16 with 5+16=21= a(5); 31/32 - 5/16 = 21/32 with 21+32=53=a(6); 63/64 - 21/32 = 21/64 with 21+64=85=a(7) and so on. For n odd in the first fraction (2^(n-1)-1)/2^(n-1), the result approaches 1/3, and for n even in the first fraction, the result approaches 2/3. - J. M. Bergot, May 08 2015

FORMULA

It appears that a(n)=(4^((n+1)/2)-1)/3 if n is odd and a(n)=(a(n-1)+a(n+1))/2 if n is even.
G.f.: (1+2*x-2*x^2)/((1-x)*(1-4*x^2)); a(n) = 2^(n-1)(3-(-1)^n/3)-1/3 (offset 0); a(n) = Sum{k=0..n+1, 4^floor(k/2)/2} (offset 0); a(2n) = A002450(n+1) (offset 0); a(2n+1) = A072197(n) (offset 0). - Paul Barry, May 21 2004
a(n+2) = 4*a(n) + 1, a(1) = 1, a(2) = 3, n > 0. - Yosu Yurramendi, Mar 07 2017

EXAMPLE
|
A002487 begins 0,1,1,2,1,3,2,... with offset 0. Thus a(1)=1 since (F(2),F(1)) = (1,1) occurs at term 1 of A002487. Similarly, a(2)=3 and a(3)=5, since (F(3),F(2))=(2,1) occurs at term 3 and (F(4),F(3))=(3,2) at term 5 of A002487.
