From the equivalences of the formulas a(n) = A003817(n) XOR (A003817(n)*n) and a(n) = A048724(A048720(n-1, A003817(n))) [the latter can be rewritten as A048720(n-1,A048724(A003817(n))), which is easily seen to be equivalent with the other given formulas for this sequence] follows that A003817(n) gives a guaranteed upper bound for A115873(n). See comments in the latter sequence.
