Formula
a(n) = A(C(n)) = A(C(n) + 1) - 2 = 4*A(n) + 3*B(n) + 2*n + 8, for n >= 0, with A = A278040 and C = A278041. For a proof see the W. Lang link in A278040, Proposition 9, eq. (50).
This formula already follows from Theorem 15 in the 1972 paper by Carlitz et al., which gives that b(c(n)) = a(n) + 2b(n) + 2c(n), where a, b and c are the classical positional sequences of the letters in the tribonacci word. The connection is made by using that c(n) = a(n) + b(n) + n, and by making the translation B(n) = a(n+1)-1, A(n) = b(n+1)-1, C(n) = c(n+1)-1. (Note the switching of A and B!). - Michel Dekking, Apr 07 2019
a(n+1) = A319969(n)-1 = A003145(A003146(n))-1, the corresponding classical compound tribonacci sequence. - Michel Dekking, Apr 04 2019
