A086893 a(n) is the index of F(n+1) at the unique occurrence of the ordered pair of reversed consecutive terms (F(n+1),F(n)) in Stern's diatomic sequence A002487, where F(k) denotes the k-th term of the Fibonacci sequence A000045.

If the Fibonacci pairs are kept in the natural order (F(n),F(n+1)), it appears that the first term of the pair occurs in A002487 at the index given by A061547(n).

Starting at n=3, begin subtracting from (2^(n-1)-1)/2^(n-1): 3/4 - 1/2 = 1/4 with 1+4=5=a(3); 7/8 - 1/4 = 5/8 with 5+8=13=a(4); 15/16 - 5/8 = 5/16 with 5+16=21= a(5); 31/32 - 5/16 = 21/32 with 21+32=53=a(6); 63/64 - 21/32 = 21/64 with 21+64=85=a(7) and so on. For n odd in the first fraction (2^(n-1)-1)/2^(n-1), the result approaches 1/3, and for n even in the first fraction, the result approaches 2/3. - J. M. Bergot, May 08 2015

Examples

			A002487 begins 0,1,1,2,1,3,2,... with offset 0. Thus a(1)=1 since (F(2),F(1)) = (1,1) occurs at term 1 of A002487. Similarly, a(2)=3 and a(3)=5, since (F(3),F(2))=(2,1) occurs at term 3 and (F(4),F(3))=(3,2) at term 5 of A002487.

Formula

T(n,0) = n^2, n>0; T(0,k) = 2^k; T(n, k) = T(n-1, k-1) + T(n-1, k) for n,k > 0. [corrected by G. C. Greubel, Nov 12 2019]
Closed-form formula for general case. Let L(m) and R(m) be the left border and the right border of Pascal like triangle, respectively. We denote binomial(n,k) by C(n,k).
As table read by antidiagonals T(n,k) = Sum_{m1=1..n} R(m1)*C(n+k-m1-1, n-m1) + Sum_{m2=1..k} L(m2)*C(n+k-m2-1, k-m2); n,k >=0.
As linear sequence a(n) = Sum_{m1=1..i} R(m1)*C(i+j-m1-1, i-m1) + Sum_{m2=1..j} L(m2)*C(i+j-m2-1, j-m2), where i=n-t*(t+1)/2-1, j=(t*t+3*t+4)/2-n-1, t=floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2); n>0.
Some special cases. If L(m)={b,b,b...} b*A000012, then the second sum takes form b*C(n+k-1,j). If L(m) is {0,b,2b,...} b*A001477, then the second sum takes form b*C(n+k,n-1). Similarly for R(m) and the first sum.
For this sequence L(m)=m^2 and R(m)=2^m.
As table read by antidiagonals T(n,k) = Sum_{m1=1..n} (2^m1)*C(n+k-m1-1, n-m1) + Sum_{m2=1..k} (m2^2)*C(n+k-m2-1, k-m2); n,k >=0.
As linear sequence a(n) = Sum_{m1=1..i} (2^m1)*C(i+j-m1-1, i-m1) + Sum_{m2=1..j} (m2^2)*C(i+j-m2-1, j-m2), where i=n-t*(t+1)/2-1, j=(t*t+3*t+4)/2-n-1, t=floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2).
As a triangular array read by rows, T(n,k) = Sum_{i=1..n-k} i^2*C(n-1-i, n-k-i) + Sum_{i=1..k} 2^i*C(n-1-i, k-i); n,k >=0. - Greg Dresden, Aug 06 2022
