COMMENT

1stSubmergeLengths[=A074473] with initial values belonging to other residue classes modulo 64 are either listed in A075476-A075483 or can be easily determined. For 64k+2s the first sink below initial value is at 2nd iterate; for 64k+4s+1 the first submerge below initial value comes at 4th term of iteration list; finally if initial value is of 64k+4s+3 form or moreover initial value = 64k+r,r = 3,11,19,23,35,43,51,55 then for all k first sink emerges at the 7,9,7,9,7,9,7,9-th iterates respectively.

FORMULA

a(n)=A074473[64n+59]

EXAMPLE

n=0: 64n+59=59, the list={59,178,89,268,134,67,202,101,304,152,76,38,..} the 12ndterm=38<59=the initial value, so a(0)=12.
