Named after Axel Thue, whose name is pronounced as if it were spelled "Tü" where the ü sound is roughly as in the German word üben. (It is incorrect to say "Too-ee" or "Too-eh".) - N. J. A. Sloane, Jun 12 2018
Also called the Thue-Morse infinite word, or the Morse-Hedlund sequence, or the parity sequence.
Fixed point of the morphism 0 --> 01, 1 --> 10, see example. - Joerg Arndt, Mar 12 2013
The sequence is cubefree (does not contain three consecutive identical blocks) [see Offner for a direct proof] and is overlap-free (does not contain XYXYX where X is 0 or 1 and Y is any string of 0's and 1's).
a(n) = "parity sequence" = parity of number of 1's in binary representation of n.
To construct the sequence: alternate blocks of 0's and 1's of successive lengths A003159(k) - A003159(k-1), k = 1, 2, 3, ... (A003159(0) = 0). Example: since the first seven differences of A003159 are 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, the sequence starts with 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0. - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 10 2003
Characteristic function of A000069 (odious numbers). - Ralf Stephan, Jun 20 2003
a(n) = S2(n) mod 2, where S2(n) = sum of digits of n, n in base-2 notation. There is a class of generalized Thue-Morse sequences: Let Sk(n) = sum of digits of n; n in base-k notation. Let F(t) be some arithmetic function. Then a(n)= F(Sk(n)) mod m is a generalized Thue-Morse sequence. The classical Thue-Morse sequence is the case k=2, m=2, F(t)= 1*t. - Ctibor O. Zizka, Feb 12 2008 (with correction from Daniel Hug, May 19 2017)
More generally, the partial sums of the generalized Thue-Morse sequences a(n) = F(Sk(n)) mod m are fractal, where Sk(n) is sum of digits of n, n in base k; F(t) is an arithmetic function; m integer. - Ctibor O. Zizka, Feb 25 2008
Starting with offset 1, = running sums mod 2 of the kneading sequence (A035263, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, ...); also parity of A005187: (1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 18, 19, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Jun 15 2008
Generalized Thue-Morse sequences mod n (n>1) = the array shown in A141803. As n -> infinity the sequences -> (1, 2, 3, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 10 2008
The Thue-Morse sequence for N = 3 = A053838, (sum of digits of n in base 3, mod 3): (0, 1, 2, 1, 2, 0, 2, 0, 1, 1, 2, ...) = A004128 mod 3. - Gary W. Adamson, Aug 24 2008
For all positive integers k, the subsequence a(0) to a(2^k-1) is identical to the subsequence a(2^k+2^(k-1)) to a(2^(k+1)+2^(k-1)-1). That is to say, the first half of A_k is identical to the second half of B_k, and the second half of A_k is identical to the first quarter of B_{k+1}, which consists of the k/2 terms immediately following B_k.
Proof: The subsequence a(2^k+2^(k-1)) to a(2^(k+1)-1), the second half of B_k, is by definition formed from the subsequence a(2^(k-1)) to a(2^k-1), the second half of A_k, by interchanging its 0's and 1's. In turn, the subsequence a(2^(k-1)) to a(2^k-1), the second half of A_k, which is by definition also B_{k-1}, is by definition formed from the subsequence a(0) to a(2^(k-1)-1), the first half of A_k, which is by definition also A_{k-1}, by interchanging its 0's and 1's. Interchanging the 0's and 1's of a subsequence twice leaves it unchanged, so the subsequence a(2^k+2^(k-1)) to a(2^(k+1)-1), the second half of B_k, must be identical to the subsequence a(0) to a(2^(k-1)-1), the first half of A_k.
Also, the subsequence a(2^(k+1)) to a(2^(k+1)+2^(k-1)-1), the first quarter of B_{k+1}, is by definition formed from the subsequence a(0) to a(2^(k-1)-1), the first quarter of A_{k+1}, by interchanging its 0's and 1's. As noted above, the subsequence a(2^(k-1)) to a(2^k-1), the second half of A_k, which is by definition also B_{k-1}, is by definition formed from the subsequence a(0) to a(2^(k-1)-1), which is by definition A_{k-1}, by interchanging its 0's and 1's, as well. If two subsequences are formed from the same subsequence by interchanging its 0's and 1's then they must be identical, so the subsequence a(2^(k+1)) to a(2^(k+1)+2^(k-1)-1), the first quarter of B_{k+1}, must be identical to the subsequence a(2^(k-1)) to a(2^k-1), the second half of A_k.
Therefore the subsequence a(0), ..., a(2^(k-1)-1), a(2^(k-1)), ..., a(2^k-1) is identical to the subsequence a(2^k+2^(k-1)), ..., a(2^(k+1)-1), a(2^(k+1)), ..., a(2^(k+1)+2^(k-1)-1), QED.
According to the German chess rules of 1929 a game of chess was drawn if the same sequence of moves was repeated three times consecutively. Euwe, see the references, proved that this rule could lead to infinite games. For his proof he reinvented the Thue-Morse sequence. - Johannes W. Meijer, Feb 04 2010
"Thue-Morse 0->01 & 1->10, at each stage append the previous with its complement. Start with 0, 1, 2, 3 and write them in binary. Next calculate the sum of the digits (mod 2) - that is divide the sum by 2 and use the remainder." Pickover, The Math Book.
Let s_2(n) be the sum of the base-2 digits of n and epsilon(n) = (-1)^s_2(n), the Thue-Morse sequence, then prod(n >= 0, ((2*n+1)/(2*n+2))^epsilon(n) ) = 1/sqrt(2). - Jonathan Vos Post, Jun 06 2012
Dekking shows that the constant obtained by interpreting this sequence as a binary expansion is transcendental; see also "The Ubiquitous Prouhet-Thue-Morse Sequence". - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jul 23 2013
Drmota, Mauduit, and Rivat proved that the subsequence a(n^2) is normal--see A228039. - Jonathan Sondow, Sep 03 2013
Although the probability of a 0 or 1 is equal, guesses predicated on the latest bit seen produce a correct match 2 out of 3 times. - Bill McEachen, Mar 13 2015
From a(0) to a(2n+1), there are n+1 terms equal to 0 and n+1 terms equal to 1 (see Hassan Tarfaoui link, Concours Général 1990). - Bernard Schott, Jan 21 2022

From _Omar E. Pol_, Oct 28 2013: (Start)
Written as an irregular triangle in which row lengths is A011782, the sequence begins:
  0;
  1;
  1,0;
  1,0,0,1;
  1,0,0,1,0,1,1,0;
  1,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1;
  1,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,1,0,1,1,0;
It appears that: row j lists the first A011782(j) terms of A010059, with j >= 0; row sums give A166444 which is also 0 together with A011782; right border gives A000035.

First Feigenbaum symbolic (or period-doubling) sequence, corresponding to the accumulation point of the 2^{k} cycles through successive bifurcations.
To construct the sequence: start with 1 and concatenate: 1,1, then change the last term (1->0; 0->1) gives: 1,0. Concatenate those 2 terms: 1,0,1,0, change the last term: 1,0,1,1. Concatenate those 4 terms: 1,0,1,1,1,0,1,1 change the last term: 1,0,1,1,1,0,1,0, etc. - Benoit Cloitre, Dec 17 2002
Let T denote the present sequence. Here is another way to construct T. Start with the sequence S = 1,0,1,,1,0,1,,1,0,1,,1,0,1,,... and fill in the successive holes with the successive terms of the sequence T (from paper by Allouche et al.). - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 08 2003 [Note that if we fill in the holes with the terms of S itself, we get A141260. - N. J. A. Sloane, Jan 14 2009]
From N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 27 2009: (Start)
In more detail: define S to be 1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1,0,1___...
If we fill the holes with S we get A141260:
1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0,
........1.........0.........1.........1.........0.......1.........1.........0...
- the result is
1..0..1.1.1..0..1.0.1..0..1.1.1..0..1.1.1..0..1.0.1.... = A141260.
But instead, if we define T recursively by filling the holes in S with the terms of T itself, we get A035263:
1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0, 1___1, 0,
........1.........0.........1.........1.........1.......0.........1.........0...
- the result is
1..0..1.1.1..0..1.0.1..0..1.1.1..0..1.1.1..0..1.1.1.0.1.0.1..0..1.1.1..0..1.0.1.. = A035263. (End)
Characteristic function of A003159, i.e., A035263(n)=1 if n is in A003159 and A035263(n)=0 otherwise (from paper by Allouche et al.). - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 15 2003
This is the sequence of R (=1), L (=0) moves in the Towers of Hanoi puzzle: R, L, R, R, R, L, R, L, R, L, R, R, R, ... - Gary W. Adamson, Sep 21 2003
Manfred Schroeder, p. 279 states, "... the kneading sequences for unimodal maps in the binary notation, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1..., are obtained from the Morse-Thue sequence by taking sums mod 2 of adjacent elements." On p. 278, in the chapter "Self-Similarity in the Logistic Parabola", he writes, "Is there a closer connection between the Morse-Thue sequence and the symbolic dynamics of the superstable orbits? There is indeed. To see this, let us replace R by 1 and C and L by 0." - Gary W. Adamson, Sep 21 2003
Partial sums modulo 2 of the sequence 1, a(1), a(1), a(2), a(2), a(3), a(3), a(4), a(4), a(5), a(5), a(6), a(6), ... . - Philippe Deléham, Jan 02 2004
Parity of A007913, A065882 and A065883. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 28 2004
The length of n-th run of 1's in this sequence is A080426(n). - Philippe Deléham, Apr 19 2004
Also parity of A005043, A005773, A026378, A104455, A117641. - Philippe Deléham, Apr 28 2007
Equals parity of the Towers of Hanoi, or ruler sequence (A001511), where the Towers of Hanoi sequence (1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 1, 4, ...) denotes the disc moved, labeled (1, 2, 3, ...) starting from the top; and the parity of (1, 2, 1, 3, ...) denotes the direction of the move, CW or CCW. The frequency of CW moves converges to 2/3. - Gary W. Adamson, May 11 2007
A conjectured identity relating to the partition sequence, A000041: p(x) = A(x) * A(x^2) when A(x) = the Euler transform of A035263 = polcoeff A174065: (1 + x + x^2 + 2x^3 + 3x^4 + 4x^5 + ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Mar 21 2010
a(n) is 1 if the number of trailing zeros in the binary representation of n is even. - Ralf Stephan, Aug 22 2013
From Gary W. Adamson, Mar 25 2015: (Start)
A conjectured identity relating to the partition sequence, A000041 as polcoeff p(x); A003159, and its characteristic function A035263: (1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, ...); and A036554 indicating n-th terms with zeros in A035263: (2, 6, 8, 10, 14, 18, 22, ...).
The conjecture states that p(x) = A(x) = A(x^2) when A(x) = polcoeffA174065 = the Euler transform of A035263 = 1/(1-x)*(1-x^3)*(1-x^4)*(1-x^5)*... = (1 + x + x^2 + 2x^3 + 3x^4 + 4x^5 + ...) and the aerated variant = the Euler transform of the complement of A035263: 1/(1-x^2)*(1-x^6)*(1-x^8)*... = (1 + x^2 + x^4 + 2x^6 + 3x^8 + 4x^10 + ...).
(End)
The conjecture above was proved by Jean-Paul Allouche on Dec 21 2013.
Regarded as a column vector, this sequence is the product of A047999 (Sierpinski's gasket) regarded as an infinite lower triangular matrix and A036497 (the Fredholm-Rueppel sequence) where the 1's have alternating signs, 1, -1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, -1, .... - Gary W. Adamson, Jun 02 2021
The numbers of 1's through n (A050292) can be determined by starting with the binary (say for 19 = 1 0 0 1 1) and writing: next term is twice current term if 0, otherwise twice plus 1. The result is 1, 2, 4, 9, 19. Take the difference row, = 1, 1, 2, 5, 10; and add the odd-indexed terms from the right: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 = 10 + 2 + 1 = 13. The algorithm is the basis for determining the disc configurations in the tower of Hanoi game, as shown in the Jul 24 2021 comment of A060572. - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 28 2021

To construct the sequence: start with 1 and concatenate 4 -1 = 3: 1, 3, then change the last term (2 -> 1, 3 ->2 ) gives 1, 2. Concatenate 1, 2 with 4 -1 = 3, 4 - 2 = 2: 1, 2, 3, 2 and change the last term: 1, 2, 3, 1. Concatenate 1, 2, 3, 1 with 4 - 1 = 3, 4 - 2 = 2, 4 - 3 = 1, 4 - 1 = 3: 1, 2, 3, 1, 3, 2, 1, 3 and change the last term: 1, 2, 3, 1, 3, 2, 1, 2 etc. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 04 2004
To construct the sequence: start with the Thue-Morse sequence A010060 = 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, ...

Number of 1's between successive 0's in A010060.
The infinite sequence is abcacbabcbac... which is encoded with a->2, b->1, c->0 to produce this integer sequence.
From Jeffrey Shallit, Dec 07 2019: (Start)
This word is sometimes called 'vtm'; see, for example, see the Blanchet-Sadri et al. reference.
It is a squarefree word containing no instances of the factor 010 or 212 (or cbc, aba in the encoding).
Berstel proved many different definitions (e.g., Braunholtz, Istrail) of the word are equivalent. (End)

From N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 26 2020: (Start)
The best definitions of the triple [this sequence, A003157, A003158] are as the rows a(n), b(n), c(n) of the table:
n: 1, 2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8,  9, 10, 11, 12, ...
a: 1, 4,  5,  6,  9, 12, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21, 22, ...
b: 3, 8, 11, 14, 19, 24, 29, 32, 35, 40, 43, 46, ...
c: 2, 7, 10, 13, 18, 23, 28, 31, 34, 39, 42, 45, ...
where a(1)=1, b(1)=3, c(1)=2, and thereafter
a(n) = mex{a(i), b(i), c(i), ib(n) = a(n) + 2*n,
c(n) = b(n) - 1.
Then a,b,c form a partition of the positive integers.
Note that there is another triple of sequences (A003144, A003145, A003146) also called a, b, c and also a partition of the positive integers, in a different paper by the same authors (Carlitz-Scovelle-Hoggatt) in the same volume of the same journal.

Clark Kimberling, May 02 2017

Conjecture: 3n - a(n) is in {0, 1} for all n >= 1.
From Michel Dekking, Sep 03 2019: (Start)
Proof of the conjecture by Kimberling: more is true. Here follows a proof of the formula below.  Let T be the transform T(01)=0, T(1)=0.
Consider the return word structure of A285949 for the word 1:
    A285949 = 0|1000|100|10|1000|10|100| ....
[See Justin & Vuillon (2000) for definition of return word. - N. J. A. Sloane, Sep 23 2019]
The three return words are u:=10, v:=100 and w:=1000. These words uniquely correspond to the conjugated three words u'=01, v'=010, w'=0100 in A285949, which are the unique images u'=T(0), v'=T(01) and w'=T(011) of the words 0, 01 and 011 in the Thue-Morse word A010060. The images of these three words under the Thue-Morse morphism 0->01, 1->10 are 01, 0110 and 011010, and we have
      T(01)=010, T(0110)=010001, T(011010)=010001001.
Shifting by 1 in A285949, these correspond uniquely to the conjugated words 100, 100010, and 100010010. It follows that the Thue-Morse morphism induces the morphism u->v, v->wu, w->wvu on the return words.
This morphism is modulo a change of alphabet equal to the ternary Thue-Morse morphism with fixed point A007413.
Note that on the alphabet {4,3,2} of the respective lengths of w, v, and u we obtain the sequence (a(n+1)-a(n)) = 4,3,2,4,2,3,4,3,2,... of first differences of the positions of the 1's in A285949.
To prove the formula a(n) = A010060(n)+ 3n-1, it suffices to show that a(n+1)-a(n) = A010060(n+1)-A010060(n)+3.
That this indeed is true: see the Comments of A029883, the first differences of the standard form of the Thue-Morse sequence A001285.
(End)
