%N Positions of 1 in A285960; complement of A285961.

%C Conjecture: a(n)/n -> 4/3.

%C From _Michel Dekking_, Apr 19 2022: (Start)

%C Kimberling's conjecture is equivalent to the property that the frequency of 1's in A285960 is equal to 3/4. This follows directly from the corresponding result in A285961.

%C But more is true. The first difference sequence (d(n)) = 1,1,2,1,2,1,1,1,2,1,1,2,1,... of (a(n)) is a morphic sequence.

%C From the representation of A285960 by the decoration A-> 11, B-> 10, C-> 110, D-> 1, we see that the differences between occurrences of 1's are also given by a decoration:

%C A->11, B->2, C->12, D->1.

%C This time one finds that (d(n)) can be obtained as a letter to letter image of a morphic sequence fixed point of a morphism mu on {a,b,c,d,e} given by

%C mu: a->ab, b->c, c->ade, d->ce, e->ad,

%C with the letter-to-letter map

%C lambda: a->1, b->1, c->2, d->2, e->1.

%C We have (d(n)) = lambda(z), where z is the fixed point z = abcade... of mu.

%C (End)

%e As a word, A285960 = 111011011110111011..., in which 1 is in positions 1,2,3,5,6,8,...

%t s = Nest[Flatten[# /. {0 -> {0, 1}, 1 -> {1, 0}}] &, {0}, 8] (* Thue-Morse, A010060 *)

%t w = StringJoin[Map[ToString, s]]

%t w1 = StringReplace[w, {"01" -> "1"}]

%t st = ToCharacterCode[w1] - 48 (* A285960 *)

%t Flatten[Position[st, 0]] (* A285961 *)

%t Flatten[Position[st, 1]] (* A285962 *)

%Y Cf. A010060, A285960, A285961.
