COMMENT

Rule of construction for the sequence: a(n) = An, where An denotes the Lam{\'}e antecessor to (or right shift of) n, which is found by replacing each Lm(i) (Lm(n) = Lm(n-1) + Lm(n-4): A003269) in the Zeckendorffian expansion (obtained by repeatedly subtracting the largest Lam{\'}e number you can until nothing remains) by Lm(i-1) (A1=1). For example: 58 = 50 + 7 + 1, so a(58)= 36 + 5 + 1 = 42. - Diego Torres (torresvillarroel(AT)hotmail.com), Nov 24 2002
