A Sturmian word.
Define strings S(0)=0, S(1)=01, S(n)=S(n-1)S(n-2); iterate; sequence is S(infinity). If the initial 0 is omitted from S(n) for n>0, we obtain A288582(n+1).
The 0's occur at positions in A022342 (i.e., A000201 - 1), the 1's at positions in A003622.
Replace each run (1;1) with (1;0) in the infinite Fibonacci word A005614 (and add 0 as prefix) A005614 begins: 1,0,1,1,0,1,0,1,1,0,1,1,... changing runs (1,1) with (1,0) produces 1,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,... - Benoit Cloitre, Nov 10 2003
Characteristic function of A003622. - Philippe Deléham, May 03 2004
The fraction of 0's in the first n terms approaches 1/phi (see for example Allouche and Shallit). - N. J. A. Sloane, Sep 24 2007
The limiting mean and variance of the first n terms are 2-phi and 2*phi-3, respectively. - Clark Kimberling, Mar 12 2014, Aug 16 2018
Let S(n) be defined as above. Then this sequence is S(1) + Sum_{n=0..} S(n), where the addition of strings represents concatenation. - Isaac Saffold, May 03 2019
The word is a concatenation of three runs: 0, 1, and 00. The limiting proportions of these are respectively 1 - phi/2, 1/2, and (phi - 1)/2. The mean runlength is (phi + 1)/2. - Clark Kimberling, Dec 26 2010
From Amiram Eldar, Mar 10 2021: (Start)
a(n) is the number of the trailing 0's in the dual Zeckendorf representation of (n+1) (A104326).
The asymptotic density of the occurrences of k (0 or 1) is 1/phi^(k+1), where phi is the golden ratio (A001622).
The asymptotic mean of this sequence is 1/phi^2 (A132338). (End)

Previous name was: The infinite Fibonacci word (start with 1, apply 0->1, 1->10, iterate, take limit).
Characteristic function of A022342. - Philippe Deléham, May 03 2004
a(n) = number of 0's between successive 1's (see also A003589 and A007538). - Eric Angelini, Jul 06 2005
With offset 1 this is the characteristic sequence for Wythoff A-numbers A000201=[1,3,4,6,...].
Eric Angelini's comment made me think that if 1 is defined to be the number of 0's between successive 1's in a string of 0's and 1's, then this string is 101. Applying the same operation to the digits of 101 leads to 101101, the iteration leads to successive palindromes of lengths given by A001911, up to a(n). - Rémi Schulz, Jul 06 2010
For generalized Fibonacci words see A221150, A221151, A221152, ... - Peter Bala, Nov 11 2013
The limiting mean of the first n terms is phi - 1; the limiting variance is phi (A001622). - Clark Kimberling, Mar 12 2014
Apply the difference operator to every column of the Wythoff difference array, A080164, to get an array of Fibonacci numbers, F(h). Replace each F(h) with h, and apply the difference operator to every column. In the resulting array, every column is A005614. - Clark Kimberling, Mar 02 2015

From Peter Bala, Nov 11 2013: (Start)
If we read the present sequence as the digits of a decimal constant c = 0.101101011011010 ... then we have the series representation c = Sum_{n >= 1} 1/10^floor(n*phi). An alternative representation is c = Sum_{n >= 1} 1/10^floor(n/phi) - 10/9.
The constant 9*c has the simple continued fraction representation [0; 1, 10, 10, 100, 1000, ..., 10^Fibonacci(n), ...]. See A010100.
Using this result we can find the alternating series representation c = 1/9 - 9*Sum_{n >= 1} (-1)^(n+1)*(1 + 10^Fibonacci(3*n+1))/( (10^(Fibonacci(3*n - 1)) - 1)*(10^(Fibonacci(3*n + 2)) - 1) ). The series converges very rapidly: for example, the first 10 terms of the series give a value for c accurate to more than 5.7 million decimal places. Cf. A014565. (End)

In other words, number of steps to reach 1 starting from n and using the process: x -> x-1 if n is odd and x -> x/2 otherwise.
a(n) = number of 0's + twice number of 1's (disregarding the leading digit 1) in the binary expansion of n, i.e., A007088(n). - Lekraj Beedassy, May 28 2010
From Daniel Forgues, Jul 31 2012: (Start)
For the binary Fibonacci rabbits sequence (A036299) (cf. OEIS Wiki link below) we have the substitution/concatenation rule: a(n), n >= 3, may be obtained by the concatenation of a(n-1) and a(n-2), with a(1) = 0, a(2) = 1. Thus, using . (dot) as the concatenation operator, we have the recursive substitution/concatenation
    a(n) = a(n-0)
    a(n) = a(n-1).a(n-2)
    a(n) = a(n-2).a(n-3).a(n-3).a(n-4)
    a(n) = a(n-3).a(n-4).a(n-4).a(n-5).a(n-4).a(n-5).a(n-5).a(n-6)
  which suggests the sequence
    {0}
    {1, 2}
    {2, 3, 3, 4}
    {3, 4, 4, 5, 4, 5, 5, 6}
  whose concatenation gives A014701 (this sequence).
Number of multiplications to compute n-th power by the Chandah-sutra method, also called left-to-right binary exponentiation:
  x^1 = x^(   1_2) =                                 (x)   (0 prod)
  x^2 = x^(  10_2) =                         (x^2)         (1 prod)
  x^3 = x^(  11_2) =                         (x^2) * (x)   (2 prod)
  x^4 = x^( 100_2) =               (x^2)^2                 (2 prod)

  x^7 = x^( 111_2) =               (x^2)^2 * (x^2) * (x)   (4 prod)
  x^8 = x^(1000_2) = ((x^2)^2)^2                           (3 prod) (End)
From Ya-Ping Lu, Mar 03 2021: (Start)
Index at which record m occurs is A052955(m).
First appearance of m in the sequence (or the record value m) is at n = 2^(m/2 + 1) - 1 for even m, and at n = 3*2^((m - 1)/2) - 1 for odd m.
The last appearance of m in the sequence is at n = 2^m. (End)
a(n) is the digit sum of n-1 in bijective base-2. Since the Fibonacci number F(m) can be defined as the number of ways to compose m as the sum of 1s and 2s, we get that m appears F(m) times in the sequence. - Oscar Cunningham, Apr 14 2024
Conjecture: a(n+1) is the minimal number of steps to go from 0 to n, by choosing before each step, after the first step, whether to keep the same step length or double it. The initial step length is 1. - Jean-Marc Rebert, May 15 2025

			5 -> 4 -> 2 -> 1 so 3 steps are needed to reach 1 hence a(5)=3; 9 -> 8 -> 4 -> 2 -> 1 hence a(9)=4.

Original name was: In the Fibonacci rabbit problem we start with an immature pair 'I' which matures after one season to 'M'. This mature pair after one season stays alive and breeds a new immature pair and we get the following sequence I, MI, MIM, MIMMI, MIMMIMIM, MIMMIMIMMIMMI... if we replace 'I' by a '0' and 'M' by a '1' we get the required binary sequence.

			a(0) = 0, a(1) = 1, a(2) = a(1)a(0)= 10, etc.
