FORMULA

a(4n) = 2*(a(2n)), a(4n+1) = 4n+3, a(4n+2) = 2*(a(2n+1)), a(4n+3) = 8n+2. - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Apr 27 2000

Formulae from Ralf Stephan (ralf(AT)ark.in-berlin.de), Feb 22 2004: a(n) = n + 2*A006519 if odd part of n is of form 4k+1, or 2n - 4*A006519 otherwise. a(2n) = 2a(n), a(2n+1) = 2n + 3 + (2n - 5)[n mod 2]. G.f.: sum(k>=0, 2^k*t(6t^6+t^4+2t^2+3)/(1-t^4)^2, t=x^2^k).

PROGRAM

(PARI) v2(n)=valuation(n, 2) a(n)=2^v2(n)*(-1+3/2*n/2^v2(n)-(-3+1/2*n/2^v2(n))*(-1)^((n/2^v2(n)-1)/2))

(PARI) a(n)=local(t): if(n<1, 0, if(n%2==0, 2*a(n/2), t=(n-1)/2:3*t+1/2-(t-5/2)*(-1)^t)) (Ralf Stephan)
