Although this is a list, it has offset 0 for both historical and mathematical reasons.
Numbers whose set of base-4 digits is a subset of {0,1}. - Ray Chandler, Aug 03 2004, corrected by M. F. Hasler, Oct 16 2018
Numbers k such that the sum of the base-2 digits of k = sum of the base-4 digits of k. - Clark Kimberling
Numbers having the same representation in both binary and negabinary (A039724). - Eric W. Weisstein
This sequence has many other interesting and useful properties. Every term k corresponds to a unique pair i,j with k = a(i) + 2*a(j) (i=A059905(n), j=A059906(n)) -- see A126684. Every list of numbers L = [L1,L2,L3,...] can be encoded uniquely by "recursive binary interleaving", where f(L) = a(L1) + 2*a(f([L2,L3,...])) with f([])=0. - Marc LeBrun, Feb 07 2001
This may be described concisely using the "rebase" notation b[n]q, which means "replace b with q in the expansion of n", thus "rebasing" n from base b into base q. The present sequence is 2[n]4. Many interesting operations (e.g., 10[n](1/10) = digit reverse, shifted) are nicely expressible this way. Note that q[n]b is (roughly) inverse to b[n]q. It's also natural to generalize the idea of "basis" so as to cover the likes of F[n]2, the so-called "fibbinary" numbers (A003714) and provide standard ready-made images of entities obeying other arithmetics, say like GF2[n]2 (e.g., primes = A014580, squares = the present sequence, etc.). - Marc LeBrun, Mar 24 2005
a(n) is also equal to the product n X n formed using carryless binary multiplication (A059729, A063010). - Henry Bottomley, Jul 03 2001
Numbers k such that A004117(k) is odd. - Pontus von Brömssen, Nov 25 2008
Fixed point of the morphism: 0 -> 01; 1 -> 45; 2 -> 89; ...; n -> (4n)(4n+1), starting from a(0)=0. - Philippe Deléham, Oct 22 2011
If n is even and present, so is n+1. - Robert G. Wilson v, Oct 24 2014
Also: interleave binary digits of n with 0's. (Equivalent to the "rebase" interpretation above.) - M. F. Hasler, Oct 16 2018
Named after the Austrian-Canadian mathematician Leo Moser (1921-1970) and the Dutch mathematician Nicolaas Govert de Bruijn (1918-2012). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 19 2021
Conjecture: The sums of distinct powers of k > 2 can be constructed as the following (k-1)-ary rooted tree. For each n the tree grows and a(n) is then the total number of nodes. For n = 1, the root of the tree is added. For n > 1, if n is odd one leaf of depth n-2 grows one child. If n is even all leaves of depth >= (n - 1 - A000225(A001511(n/2))) grow the maximum number of children. An illustration is provided in the links. - John Tyler Rascoe, Oct 09 2022

			G.f.: x + 4*x^2 + 5*x^3 + 16*x^4 + 17*x^5 + 20*x^6 + 21*x^7 + 64*x^8 + ...
If n=27, then b_0=1, b_1=1, b_2=0, b_3=1, b_4=1. Therefore a(27) = 4^4 + 4^3 + 4 + 1 = 325; k = b_0 + b_2*2 + b_4*2^2 = 5, l = b_1 + b_3*2 = 3, such that a(5)=17, a(3)=5 and 27 = 17 + 2*5. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Nov 10 2008

Also called Dress's sequence.
This sequence might be better called Glaisher's sequence, since James Glaisher showed that odd binomial coefficients are counted by 2^A000120(n) in 1899. - Eric Rowland, Mar 17 2017 [However, the name "Gould's sequence" is deeply entrenched in the literature. - N. J. A. Sloane, Mar 17 2017] [Named after the American mathematician Henry Wadsworth Gould (b. 1928). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 19 2021]
All terms are powers of 2. The first occurrence of 2^k is at n = 2^k - 1; e.g., the first occurrence of 16 is at n = 15. - Robert G. Wilson v, Dec 06 2000
a(n) is the highest power of 2 dividing binomial(2n,n) = A000984(n). - Benoit Cloitre, Jan 23 2002
Also number of 1's in n-th row of triangle in A070886. - Hans Havermann, May 26 2002. Equivalently, number of live cells in generation n of a one-dimensional cellular automaton, Rule 90, starting with a single live cell. - Ben Branman, Feb 28 2009. Ditto for Rule 18. - N. J. A. Sloane, Aug 09 2014. This is also the odd-rule cellular automaton defined by OddRule 003 (see Ekhad-Sloane-Zeilberger "Odd-Rule Cellular Automata on the Square Grid" link). - N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 25 2015
Also number of numbers k, 0<=k<=n, such that (k OR n) = n (bitwise logical OR): a(n) = #{k : T(n,k)=n, 0<=k<=n}, where T is defined as in A080098. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 28 2003
To construct the sequence, start with 1 and use the rule: If k >= 0 and a(0),a(1),...,a(2^k-1) are the first 2^k terms, then the next 2^k terms are 2*a(0),2*a(1),...,2*a(2^k-1). - Benoit Cloitre, Jan 30 2003
Also, numerator((2^k)/k!). - Mohammed Bouayoun (mohammed.bouayoun(AT)sanef.com), Mar 03 2004
The odd entries in Pascal's triangle form the Sierpiński Gasket (a fractal). - Amarnath Murthy, Nov 20 2004
Row sums of Sierpiński's Gasket A047999. - Johannes W. Meijer, Jun 05 2011
Fixed point of the morphism "1" -> "1,2", "2" -> "2,4", "4" -> "4,8", ..., "2^k" -> "2^k,2^(k+1)", ... starting with a(0) = 1; 1 -> 12 -> 1224 -> = 12242448 -> 122424482448488(16) -> ... . - Philippe Deléham, Jun 18 2005
a(n) = number of 1's of stage n of the one-dimensional cellular automaton with Rule 90. - Andras Erszegi (erszegi.andras(AT)chello.hu), Apr 01 2006
a(33)..a(63) = A117973(1)..A117973(31). - Stephen Crowley, Mar 21 2007
Or the number of solutions of the equation: A000120(x) + A000120(n-x) = A000120(n). - Vladimir Shevelev, Jul 19 2009
For positive n, a(n) equals the denominator of the permanent of the n X n matrix consisting entirely of (1/2)'s. - John M. Campbell, May 26 2011
Companions to A001316 are A048896, A105321, A117973, A151930 and A191488. They all have the same structure. We observe that for all these sequences a((2*n+1)*2^p-1) = C(p)*A001316(n), p >= 0. If C(p) = 2^p then a(n) = A001316(n), if C(p) = 1 then a(n) = A048896(n), if C(p) = 2^p+2 then a(n) = A105321(n+1), if C(p) = 2^(p+1) then a(n) = A117973(n), if C(p) = 2^p-2 then a(n) = (-1)*A151930(n) and if C(p) = 2^(p+1)+2 then a(n) = A191488(n). Furthermore for all a(2^p - 1) = C(p). - Johannes W. Meijer, Jun 05 2011
a(n) = number of zeros in n-th row of A219463 = number of ones in n-th row of A047999. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 30 2012
This is the Run Length Transform of S(n) = {1,2,4,8,16,...} (cf. A000079). The Run Length Transform of a sequence {S(n), n>=0} is defined to be the sequence {T(n), n>=0} given by T(n) = Product_i S(i), where i runs through the lengths of runs of 1's in the binary expansion of n. E.g., 19 is 10011 in binary, which has two runs of 1's, of lengths 1 and 2. So T(19) = S(1)*S(2). T(0)=1 (the empty product). - N. J. A. Sloane, Sep 05 2014
A105321(n+1) = a(n+1) + a(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 14 2014
a(n) = A261363(n,n) = number of distinct terms in row n of A261363 = number of odd terms in row n+1 of A261363. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Aug 16 2015
From Gary W. Adamson, Aug 26 2016: (Start)
A production matrix for the sequence is lim_{k->infinity} M^k, the left-shifted vector of M:
  1, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...
  2, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...
  0, 1, 0, 0, 0, ...
  0, 2, 0, 0, 0, ...
  0, 0, 1, 0, 0, ...
  0, 0, 2, 0, 0, ...
  0, 0, 0, 1, 0, ...
  ...
The result is equivalent to the g.f. of Apr 06 2003: Product_{k>=0} (1 + 2*z^(2^k)). (End)
Number of binary palindromes of length n for which the first floor(n/2) symbols are themselves a palindrome (Ji and Wilf 2008). - Jeffrey Shallit, Jun 15 2017

This sequence pertains to phenotype Punnett square mathematics. Start with X=1. Each hybrid cross involves the equation X:3X. Therefore, the ratio in the first (mono) hybrid cross is X=1:3X=3(1) or 3; or 3:1. When you move up to the next hybridization level, replace the previous cross ratio with X. X now represents 2 numbers-1:3. Therefore, the ratio in the second (di) hybrid cross is X=(1:3):3X=[3(1):3(3)] or (3:9). Put it together and you get 1:3:3:9. Each time you move up a hybridization level, replace the previous ratio with X, and use the same equation-X:3X to get its ratio. - John Michael Feuk, Dec 10 2011

This is a composite of two earlier sequences contributed at different times by N. J. A. Sloane and by Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 05 2005. Christian G. Bower extended them and found that they agreed for at least 512 terms. The proof that they were identical was found by Ralf Stephan, Jun 13 2005, based on the fact that they were both 3-regular sequences.

			The triples of elements (a(3k), a(3k+1), a(3k+2)) are (1,1,0) if a(k) = 1 and (0,0,0) if a(k) = 0.  So since a(2) = 0, a(6) = a(7) = a(8) = 0, and since a(3) = 1, a(9) = a(10) = 1 and a(11) = 0. - _Michael B. Porter_, Jul 11 2016
