When n > 0 is written as k*2^j with k odd then k = A000265(n) and j = A007814(n), so: when n is written as k*2^j - 1 with k odd then k = A000265(n+1) and j = A007814(n+1), when n > 1 is written as k*2^j + 1 with k odd then k = A000265(n-1) and j = A007814(n-1).
Also denominator of 2^n/n (numerator is A075101(n)). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Sep 01 2002
Slope of line connecting (o, a(o)) where o = (2^k)(n-1) + 1 is 2^k and (by design) starts at (1, 1). - Josh Locker (joshlocker(AT)macfora.com), Apr 17 2004

"The sequence can be arranged in a table:
                          1
                       1  3  1
                    1  5  3  7  1

  1 17  9 19  5 21 11 23  3 25 13 27  7 29 15 31  1
Every new row is the previous row interspaced with the continuation of the odd numbers.
Except for the ones; the terms (t) in each column are t+t+/-s = t_+1. Starting from the center column of threes and working to the left the values of s are given by A000265 and working to the right by A000265." (End)
This is a fractal sequence. The odd-numbered elements give the odd natural numbers. If these elements are removed, the original sequence is recovered. - Kerry Mitchell, Dec 07 2005
2k + 1 is the k-th and largest of the subsequence of k terms separating two successive equal entries in a(n). - Lekraj Beedassy, Dec 30 2005
It's not difficult to show that the sum of the first 2^n terms is (4^n + 2)/3. - Nick Hobson, Jan 14 2005
In the table, for each row, (sum of terms between 3 and 1) - (sum of terms between 1 and 3) = A020988. - Eric Desbiaux, May 27 2009
This sequence appears in the analysis of A160469 and A156769, which resemble the  numerator and denominator of the Taylor series for tan(x). - Johannes W. Meijer, May 24 2009
Indices n such that a(n) divides 2^n - 1 are listed in A068563. - Max Alekseyev, Aug 25 2013
From Alexander R. Povolotsky, Dec 17 2014: (Start)
With regard to the tabular presentation described in the comment by Marco Matosic: in his drawing, starting with the 3rd row, the first term in the row, which is equal to 1 (or, alternatively the last term in the row, which is also equal to 1), is not in the actual sequence and is added to the drawing as a fictitious term (for the sake of symmetry); an actual A000265(n) could be considered to be a(j,k) (where j >= 1 is the row number and k>=1 is the column subscript), such that a(j,1) = 1:
  1
  1  3
  1  5  3  7
  1  9  5 11  3 13  7 15
  1 17  9 19  5 21 11 23  3 25 13 27  7 29 15 31
and so on ... .
The relationship between k and j for each row is 1 <= k <= 2^(j-1). In this corrected tabular representation, Marco's notion that "every new row is the previous row interspaced with the continuation of the odd numbers" remains true. (End)
Partitions natural numbers to the same equivalence classes as A064989. That is, for all i, j: a(i) = a(j) <=> A064989(i) = A064989(j). There are dozens of other such sequences (like A003602) for which this also holds: In general, all sequences for which a(2n) = a(n) and the odd bisection is injective. - Antti Karttunen, Apr 15 2017

As well as being multiplicative, a(n) is a strong divisibility sequence, that is, gcd(a(n),a(m)) = a(gcd(n,m)) for n, m >= 1. In particular, a(n) is a divisibility sequence: if n divides m then a(n) divides a(m). - Peter Bala, Feb 27 2019
a(n) is also the map n -> A026741(n) applied at least A007814(n) times. - Federico Provvedi, Dec 14 2021

The above observation can be made more precise. Let A(n,k), n >= 0, 0 <= k <= 2^(n-1)-1 for k > 0, denote the entry in row n and column k of the left-justified array above.
The equations for columns 0,1,2,3,4,... are successively (ignoring row 0):
     1 (n >= 1),
     n (n >= 2),
   n-1 (n >= 3),
  2n-3 (n >= 3),
   n-2 (n >= 4),
  3n-7 (n >= 4),

and in general column k > 0 is given by
A(n,k) = a(k)*n - A156140(k) for n >= ceiling(log_2(k+1))+1, and 0 otherwise.

a(n) is the number of odd Stirling numbers S_2(n+1, 2r+1) [Carlitz].
Moshe Newman proved that the fraction a(n+1)/a(n+2) can be generated from the previous fraction a(n)/a(n+1) = x by 1/(2*floor(x) + 1 - x). The successor function f(x) = 1/(floor(x) + 1 - frac(x)) can also be used.
a(n+1) = number of alternating bit sets in n [Finch].
If f(x) = 1/(1 + floor(x) - frac(x)) then f(a(n-1)/a(n)) = a(n)/a(n+1) for n >= 1. If T(x) = -1/x and f(x) = y, then f(T(y)) = T(x) for x > 0. - Michael Somos, Sep 03 2006
a(n+1) is the number of ways of writing n as a sum of powers of 2, each power being used at most twice (the number of hyperbinary representations of n) [Carlitz; Lind].
a(n+1) is the number of partitions of the n-th integer expressible as the sum of distinct even-subscripted Fibonacci numbers (= A054204(n)), into sums of distinct Fibonacci numbers [Bicknell-Johnson, theorem 2.1].
a(n+1) is the number of odd binomial(n-k, k), 0 <= 2*k <= n. [Carlitz], corrected by Alessandro De Luca, Jun 11 2014
a(2^k) = 1. a(3*2^k) = a(2^(k+1) + 2^k) = 2. Sequences of terms between a(2^k) = 1 and a(2^(k+1)) = 1 are palindromes of length 2^k-1 with a(2^k + 2^(k-1)) = 2 in the middle. a(2^(k-1) + 1) = a(2^k - 1) = k+1 for k > 1. - Alexander Adamchuk, Oct 10 2006

The Kn1y and Kn2y triangle sums, see A180662 for their definitions, of A047999 lead to the sequence given above, e.g., Kn11(n) = A002487(n+1) - A000004(n), Kn12(n) = A002487(n+3) - A000012(n), Kn13(n) = A002487(n+5) - A000034(n+1) and Kn14(n) = A002487(n+7) - A157810(n+1).

The sequence can be extended so that a(n) = a(-n), a(2*n) = a(n), a(2*n+1) = a(n) + a(n+1) for all n in Z. - Michael Somos, Jun 25 2019
Named after the German mathematician Moritz Abraham Stern (1807-1894), and sometimes also after the French clockmaker and amateur mathematician Achille Brocot (1817-1878). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 06 2021
It appears that a(n) is equal to the multiplicative inverse of A007305(n+1) mod A007306(n+1).  For example, a(12) is 2, the multiplicative inverse of A007305(13) mod A007306(13), where A007305(13) is 4 and A007306(13) is 7. - Gary W. Adamson, Dec 18 2023

  ...
a(91) = 19, because 91_10 = 1011011_2; b_6=b_4=b_3=b_1=b_0=1, b_5=b_2=0;  L=5; m_1=0, m_2=1, m_3=3, m_4=4, m_5=6; c_1=2, c_2=3, c_3=2, c_4=3; f(1)=1, f(2)=2, f(3)=5, f(4)=8, f(5)=19. - _Yosu Yurramendi_, Jul 13 2016
From _I. V. Serov_, Jun 01 2017: (Start)
a(n) is the length of the Christoffel word chf(n):

Let e(n) = A007814(n) = exponent of highest power of 2 dividing n. Then a(n+1) = (2k+1)*a(n)-a(n-1), n > 0, where k = e(n). Moreover, floor(a(n-1)/a(n)) = e(n), in agreement with D. Newman's formula. - Dragutin Svrtan (dsvrtan(AT)math.hr) and Igor Urbiha (urbiha(AT)math.hr), Jan 10 2002
