Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Starting with 0, the first 5 iterations of the morphism yield words shown here:
1st: 10
2nd: 2010
3rd: 0102010
4th: 1020100102010
5th: 201001020101020100102010
The 2-limiting word is the limit of the words for which the number of iterations is congruent to 2 mod 3.
Let U, V, W be the limits of u(n)/n, v(n)/n, w(n)/n, respectively. Then 1/U + 1/V + 1/W = 1, where
U = 1.8392867552141611325518525646532866...,
V = U^2 = 3.3829757679062374941227085364...,
W = U^3 = 6.2222625231203986266745611011....
If n >=2, then u(n) - u(n-1) is in {1,2}, v(n) - v(n-1) is in {2,3,4}, and w(n) - w(n-1) is in {4,6,7}.
