cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A065883 Remove factors of 4 from n (i.e., write n in base 4, drop final zeros, then rewrite in decimal).

Formula

If n mod 4 = 0 then a(n) = a(n/4), otherwise a(n) = n.
Multiplicative with a(p^e) = 2^(e (mod 2)) if p = 2 and a(p^e) = p^e if p is an odd prime.
a(n) = n/4^A235127(n).
a(n) = A214392(n) if n mod 16 != 0. - Peter Kagey, Sep 02 2015
From Robert Israel, Dec 08 2015: (Start)
G.f.: x/(1-x)^2 - 3 Sum_{j>=1} x^(4^j)/(1-x^(4^j))^2.
G.f. satisfies G(x) = G(x^4) + x/(1-x)^2 - 4 x^4/(1-x^4)^2. (End)
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ (2/5) * n^2. - Amiram Eldar, Nov 20 2022
Dirichlet g.f.: zeta(s-1)*(4^s-4)/(4^s-1). - Amiram Eldar, Jan 04 2023
