%N Limiting block extension of A010060 (Thue-Morse sequence) with first term as initial block.

%C Suppose S = (s(0), s(1), s(2), ...) is an infinite sequence such that every finite block of consecutive terms occurs infinitely many times in S. (It is assumed that A010060 is such a sequence.) Let B = B(m,k) = (s(m), s(m+1),...s(m+k)) be such a block, where m >= 0 and k >= 0. Let m(1) be the least i > m such that (s(i), s(i+1),...,s(i+k)) = B(m,k), and put B(m(1),k+1) = (s(m(1)), s(m(1)+1),...s(m(1)+k+1)). Let m(2) be the least i > m(1) such that (s(i), s(i+1),...,s(i+k)) = B(m(1),k+1), and put B(m(2),k+2) = (s(m(2)), s(m(2)+1),...s(m(2)+k+2)). Continuing in this manner gives a sequence of blocks B'(n) = B(m(n),k+n), so that for n >= 0, B'(n+1) comes from B'(n) by suffixing a single term; thus the limit of B'(n) is defined; we call it the "limiting block extension of S with initial block B(m,k)", denoted by S^ in case the initial block is s(0).

%C The sequence (m(i)), where m(0) = 0, is the "index sequence for limit-block extending S with initial block B(m,k)", as in A246147.

%C Limiting block extensions are analogous to limit-reverse sequences, S*, defined at A245920. The essential difference is that S^ is formed by extending each new block one term to the right, whereas S* is formed by extending each new block one term to the left (and then reversing).

%e S = A010060, with B = (s(0)); that is, (m,k) = (0,0)

%e S = (0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,1,...)

%e B'(0) = (0)

%e B'(1) = (0,1)

%e B'(2) = (0,1,1)

%e B'(3) = (0,1,1,0)

%e B'(4) = (0,1,1,0,0)

%e B'(5) = (0,1,1,0,0,1)

%e S^ = (0,1,1,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1,0,1,1,...),
