COMMENTS
The sequences p = A032766, q = A285395, r = A284396 of positions of 0,1,2, respectively, partition the positive integers. Let t,u,v be the slopes of p, q, r, respectively. Then t = 3/2, u = (9+3*sqrt(5))/2, v = (3+3*sqrt(5))/2, and 1/t + 1/u + 1/v = 1.

FORMULA
a(n) = 3*floor(n*phi) + 2. This follows from Theorem 29 in Allouche and Dekking, since the overlap word 10101 that contains 101 does not occur in the Fibonacci word. Note that v = 3*phi. - Michel Dekking, Oct 17 2018
EXAMPLE
As a word, A284394 = 01002001002002001..., in which the positions of 2 are 5,11,14,...
