%N Positions of 0 in A287104.

%C From _Michel Dekking_, Sep 17 2019: (Start)

%C Let sigma be the defining morphism of A287104: 0->10, 1->12, 2->0.

%C Let u=01, v=012, w=0121 be the return words of the word 0.

%C [See Justin & Vuillon (2000) for definition of return word. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Sep 23 2019]

%C Then under sigma u, v and w are mapped to

%C sigma(01) = 1012, sigma(012) = 10120, sigma(0121) = 1012012.

%C Moving the prefix 1 of these three images to the end, the sequence 0 a (i.e., (a(n)) prefixed by the symbol 0), is a fixed point when iterating.

%C This iteration process induces a morphism 2->4, 3->32, 4->34 on the return words, coded by their lengths.

%C Coding the symbols according to 2<->2, 4<->0, 3<->1, this leads to the morphism 2->0, 1->12, 0->10 on the alphabet {0,1,2}.

%C This is simply sigma, which has A287104 as its unique fixed point. So the sequence d of first differences of (a(n)) equals A287104 with the coding above. Noting that the code can be written as x->4-x, this gives the formula below.
