Comments

The motivation for this kind of sequence was a question: what kind of simply defined non-injective functions f exist such that this sequence can be defined as their function, e.g., as a(n) = g(f(n)), where g is a nontrivial integer-valued function? The same question can also be asked about A324288, A324337 and A324338. Note that A005187, A283477 and A006068 used in their definitions are all injections. Of course, A324377(n) = A000265(A005187(n)) fills the bill as A002487(n) = A002487(A000265(n)), but are there any less obvious solutions? - Antti Karttunen, Feb 28 2019
