This is the sequence A(0,1;1,1;2) of the family of sequences [a,b:c,d:k] considered by G. Detlefs, and treated as A(a,b;c,d;k) in the W. Lang link given below. - Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 17 2010
Ternary words of length n - 1 with subwords (0, 1), (0, 2) and (2, 2) not allowed. - Olivier Gérard, Aug 28 2012
For subsets of (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, ...) Fibonacci Maximal terms (Cf. A181631) equals the number of leading 1's per subset. For example, (7-11) in Fibonacci Maximal = (1010, 1011, 1101, 1110, 1111), numbers of leading 1's = (1 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4) = 11 = a(4) = row 4 of triangle A181631. - Gary W. Adamson, Nov 02 2010
As in our 2009 paper, we use two types of Fibonacci trees: - Ta: Fibonacci analog of binomial trees; Tb: Binary Fibonacci trees. Let D(r(k)) be the sum over all distances of the form d(r, x), across all vertices x of the tree rooted at r of order k. Ignoring r, but overloading, let D(a(k)) and D(b(k)) be the distance sums for the Fibonacci trees Ta and Tb respectively of the order k. Using the sum-of-product form in Equations (18) and (21) in our paper it follows that F(k+4) - 2 = D(a(k+1)) - D(b(k-1)). - K.V.Iyer and P. Venkata Subba Reddy, Apr 30 2011
a(n) is the length of the n-th palindromic prefix of the infinite Fibonacci word A003849. - Dimitri Hendriks, May 19 2014
The first k terms of the infinite Fibonacci word A014675 are palindromic if and only if k is a positive term of this sequence. - Clark Kimberling, Jul 14 2014
Can be expressed in terms of a rule similar to Recamán's sequence (A005132). Instead of following the Recamán rule "subtract if possible, otherwise add", this sequence follows the rule "If subtraction is possible, do nothing; otherwise add." For example when at the fourth term, 6, it is possible to subtract 4 (giving 2 which is not in {0, 1, 3, 6}) so nothing is done with 4. It is not possible to subtract 5 (6-5=1, which is in {0, 1, 3, 6}), so it is added, resulting in 11. - Matthew Malone, Jan 03 2020
For n>=1, a(n) is the maximum number of vertices (Moore bound) of a (1,1)-regular mixed graph with diameter n-1. - Miquel A. Fiol, Jun 24 2024

A192017 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of unordered pairs of nodes at distance k in the Fibonacci tree of order n (1<=k<=n; entries in row n are the coefficients of the corresponding Wiener polynomial).

The Fibonacci trees f(k) of order k are defined as follows: 1. f(-1) and f(0) each consist of a single node. 2. For k>=1, to the root of f(k-1), taken as the root of f(k), we attach with a rightmost edge the tree f(k-2). See the Iyer & Reddy references. These trees are not the same as the Fibonacci trees in A180566.

Sum of entries in row n is A191797(n+2).

			T(2,2)=1 because in the Fibonacci tree of order 2, namely /\, there is only 1 pair of nodes at distance 2 (the two leaves).

The Wiener polynomial w(n,t) of the Fibonacci tree of order n satisfies the recurrence relation w(n,t) = w(n-1,t) + w(n-2,t) + t*r(n-1,t)*r(n-2,t), w(0,t)=w(1,t)=0, where r(n,t) is the generating polynomial of the nodes of the Fibonacci tree of order n with respect to the level of the nodes (for example, r(2,t) = 1 + 2t for the tree /\; see A011973 and the Maple program).
