Except for first term, binary expansion of the decimal number 1/10 = 0,000110011001100110011....in base 2 - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), May 18 2002

Content of #2 binary placeholder when n is converted from decimal to binary. a(n) = Mod(n*(n-1)/2,2). Example: a(7) = 1 since 7 in binary is 1 -1- 1 and (7*6/2) mod 2 = 1 - Anne M. Donovan (anned3005(AT)aol.com) Sep 15 2003

Expansion in any base b of 1/((b-1)(b^2+1)) = 1/(b^3-b^2+b-1). E.g., 1/5 in base 2, 1/20 in base 3, 1/51 in base 4, etc. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Nov 07 2006

Index entries for sequences related to Chebyshev polynomials.

G.f. : (x^2+x^3)/(1-x^4); a(n)=1/2-cos(pi*n/2)/2-sin(pi*n/2)/2; a(n)=a(n-1)-a(n-2)+a(n-3). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Aug 30 2004

a(n+2)=sum(b(k), k=0..n), n>=0, with b(k):=A056594(k) (partial sums of S(n, x) Chebyshev polynomials at x=0).

a(n)=-a(n-2)+1, n>=2, a(0)=0=a(1).

G.f.: x^2/((1-x)*(1+x^2))=x^2/(1-x+x^2-x^3).

a(n)=(1/12)*{4*(n mod 4)+[(n+1) mod 4]-2*[(n+2) mod 4]+[(n+3) mod 4]}, with n>=0 - Paolo P. Lava (ppl(AT)spl.at), Oct 23 2007
