Parsed into blocks of 1, 2, 4, 8,...term sums = powers of 12: (1, 12, 144,...).

A178569 is generated from a(2n) = 10*a(n); a(2n+1) = a(n) + a(n+1).

Polcoeff (1 + 10x + 11x^2 + ...) satisfies f(x)/f(x^2) = (1 + x + 10x^2).

Let q(x) = (1 + x + 10*x^2). Then (1 + 10x + 11x^2 + 100x^3 + ...) = q(x) * q(x^2) * q(x^4) * q(x^8) * ...

Formula

a(2n) = a(n), a(2n+1) = 10*a(n) + a(n+1) = row 10 in the array of A178239.

Let M = an infinite lower triangular matrix with (1, 1, 10, 0, 0, 0,...) in each column, shifted down twice from the previous column. This sequence is Lim_{n->inf} M^n, the left-shifted vector considered as a sequence.

Example

a(6) = a(3) = 10 since a(2n) = a(n);
a(7) = 111 = 10*a(n) + a(n+1) = 10*11 + 1.

Mathematica

a[1] = 1; a[n_] := a[n] = If[EvenQ@ n, a[n/2], 10 a[(n - 1)/2] + a[(n - 1)/2 + 1]]; Array[a, 55] (* Michael De Vlieger, May 20 2017 *)
