N. J. A. Sloane

On Jul 15 1988 during a colloquium talk at Bell Labs, John Conway stated that he could prove that a(n)/n -> 1/2 as n approached infinity, but that the proof was extremely difficult. He therefore offered $100 to someone who could find an n_0 such that for all n >= n_0, we have |a(n)/n - 1/2| < 0.05, and he offered $10,000 for the least such n_0. I took notes (a scan of my notebook pages appears below), plus the talk - like all Bell Labs Colloquia at that time - was recorded on video. John said afterwards that he meant to say $1000, but in fact he said $10,000. I was in the front row. The prize was claimed by Colin Mallows, who agreed not to cash the check. - N. J. A. Sloane, Oct 21 2015
a(n) - a(n-1) = 0 or 1 (see the D. Newman reference). - Emeric Deutsch, Jun 06 2005
a(A188163(n)) = n and a(m) < n for m < A188163(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jun 03 2011
From Daniel Forgues, Oct 04 2019: (Start)
Conjectures:
  a(n) = n/2 iff n = 2^k, k >= 1.
  a(n) = 2^(k-1): k times, for n = 2^k - (k-1) to 2^k, k >= 1. (End)

			If n=4, 2^4=16, a(16-i) = 2^(4-1) = 8 for 0 <= i <= 4-1 = 3, hence a(16)=a(15)=a(14)=a(13)=8.

Altug Alkan, Apr 20 2017

Although sequence is unpredictable with its complex growth characteristic and generational structure, it has various signs of order and there are many temporary and simple patterns on it. For example, values of a(n) such that a(n) = a(n + 1) = a(n + 2) = a(n + 3) are 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 640, 1280, ...

			a(5) = 3 because a(5) = a(a(4)-1) + a(5-a(2)) = a(1) + a(3) = 2.
