%N Numbers whose binary expansion has the same runs-resistance as cuts-resistance.

%C For the operation of taking the sequence of run-lengths of a finite sequence, runs-resistance is defined to be the number of applications required to reach a singleton.

%C For the operation of shortening all runs by 1, cuts-resistance is defined to be the number of applications required to reach an empty word.

%e The sequence of terms together with their binary expansions begins:

%e 0:

%e 8: 1000

%e 12: 1100

%e 14: 1110

%e 17: 10001

%e 24: 11000

%e 27: 11011

%e 28: 11100

%e 35: 100011

%e 36: 100100

%e 39: 100111

%e 47: 101111

%e 49: 110001

%e 54: 110110

%e 57: 111001

%e 61: 111101

%e 70: 1000110

%e 73: 1001001

%e 78: 1001110

%e 80: 1010000

%e For example, 36 has runs-resistance 3 because we have (100100) -> (1212) -> (1111) -> (4), while the cuts-resistance is also 3 because we have (100100) -> (00) -> (0) -> ().

%e Similarly, 57 has runs-resistance 3 because we have (111001) -> (321) -> (111) -> (3), while the cuts-resistance is also 3 because we have (111001) -> (110) -> (1) -> ().
