%N a(n) is the number of arithmetic triples n<p<q (three numbers in arithmetic progression) such that p and q contain no 2's in their ternary representation.

%C This is a recursive sequence that gives the number of times n is rejected from A005836, if n is the smallest member of an arithmetic triple whose final two terms are contained in A005836.

%C This is similar to both A002487, which has a similar recurrence relation and counts hyperbinary representations of n, and A000119, which counts representations of n as a sum of distinct Fibonacci numbers.

%C For n<k (choose the smallest k), a(n)=0, a(k)=0, a(n)=A262097(k), a(n+1)=A262097(k-1), a(n+2)=A262097(k-2)... a(k)=A262097(n).

%C Indices of maxima between a(n) and a(k) appear to converge to (3/4)(k-n) and (11/12)(k-n).
