COMMENT

a(0)=0. The alternation is applied only to the nonzero bits and does not depend on the exponent of two. All integers have a unique reversing binary representation (see cited exercise for proof). Complement of A048724.

A permutation of the "odious" numbers A000069.

Write n-1 and 2n-1 in binary and add them mod 2; example: n = 6, n-1 = 5 = 101 in binary, 2n-1 = 11 = 1011 in binary and their sum is 1110 = 14, so a(6) = 14. - Philippe DELEHAM, Apr 29 2005

As already pointed out, this is a permutation of the odious numbers A000069 and A010060(A000069(n)) = 1, so A010060(a(n)) = 1; and A010060(A048724(n)) = 0. - Philippe DELEHAM, Apr 29 2005. Also a(n) = A000069(A003188(n - 1)).

FORMULA

a(n) = if n=0 or n=1 then n else b+2*a(b+(1-2*b)*n)/2) where b is the least significant bit in n.

a(n) = n XOR 2 (n - (n AND -n))

a(1) = 1, a(2n) = 2a(n), a(2n+1) = 2a(n+1) - 2(-1)^n + 1. - Ralf Stephan (ralf(AT)ark.in-berlin.de), Aug 20 2003

a(n) = A048724(n-1) - (-1)^n. - Ralf Stephan (ralf(AT)ark.in-berlin.de), Sep 10 2003

a(n)=sum(k=0, n, (1-(-1)^round(-n/2^k))/2*2^k). - Benoit Cloitre, Apr 27 2005

Closely related to Gray codes in another way: a(n) := 2 * A003188(n) + (n mod 2) : a(n) := 4 * A003188(n div 2) + (n mod 2) . - Matt Erbst (matt(AT)erbst.org), Jul 18 2006

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 13 = 8 + 4 + 1 -> 8 - 4 + 1 = 5.

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<2, 1, if(n%2==0, 2*a(n/2), 2*a((n+1)/2)-2*(-1)^((n-1)/2)+1))

CROSSREFS

Cf. A065620, A048724, A072219, A073122.

Differs from A115857 for the first time at n=19, where a(19)=55, while A115857(19)=23. Cf. A104895, A115872, A114389, A114390, A105081.
