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”).

If a(n) has at least one common digit with a(n-1), underline a(n). The non-underlined terms reproduce the sequence itself.

COMMENTS
This is a kind of fractal sequence as it contains an infinite number of copies of itself. The underlined terms of the sequence are the lexicographically earliest permutation of the natural numbers > 10.
EXAMPLE
If we erase the parenthesized terms, we get the sequence itself: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 20), 11, (31, 23, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 32, 30), 12, (41, 34, 33, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 43, 40), 13, (51, 45, 42, 44, 46, 47, 48, 49, 54, 50), 14, (61, 56, 52, 53, 55, 57, 58, 59, 65, 60), 15, (71, 67, 62, 63, 64, 66, 68, 69, 76, 70), 16, (81, 78, 72, ...) etc.
