COMMENT

Or, possible peak values in 3x+1 trajectories: 1,2 and n=16k+4,16k+8,16k but not for all k; those 4k numbers [like n=16k+12 and others] which cannot be such peaks are listed in A087252.

EXAMPLE

These peak values occur in 1, 3, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, 27, 30, 39, 44, 71, 75, 1579 [3x+1]-iteration trajectories started with different initial values. This list most probably is incomplete.
