%N 2*n - maximal value arising in the sequence S(n) representing the digital sum analog base n of the Fibonacci recurrence.
%C The inequality a(n)>=3 holds for n>2.
%C a(n)=3 arises infinitely often; lim inf a(n)=3 for n-->oo.
%F a(n)=2n-A131319(n).
%F a(Lucas(2n))=3 where Lucas(n)=A000032(n).
%e a(3)=3, since the digital sum analog base 3 of the Fibonacci sequence is 0,1,1,2,3,3,2,3,3,... where the pattern {2,3,3} is the periodic part (see A131294) and so has a maximal value of 3 which implies 2*3-3=3. a(9)=5, because the pattern here is {2,3,5,8,13,13,10,7,9,8,9,9} (see A010076) where the maximal value is 13 and so 2*9-13=5.
%Y Cf. A000032, A000045, A000032, A131318, A131320.
%Y See A010074, A010075, A010076, A010077, A131294, A131295, A131296, A131297 for the definition of the digital sum analog of the Fibonacci sequence (in different bases).
