COMMENTS
a(n) is the length signature of a string plus its length.
The positive members of this sequence are exactly the numbers that can be expressed as the sum of two or more consecutive positive integers (cf. A138591). - David Wasserman, Jan 24 2002
Starting at 3, these are the positions of the data bits in the single-error-correcting Hamming code.
Except for the offset 0, sequence corresponds to numbers with at least an odd divisor > 1 (For largest odd divisor see A000265). - Lekraj Beedassy, Apr 12 2005
These are exactly the numbers n with the property that, given the n(n-1)/2 sums of pairs, the original numbers can be recovered uniquely. [Nick Reingold, see Winkler reference.]
Subsequence of A158581; A000120(a(n)) > 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 16 2009
Range of A140977. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Aug 15 2010
A209229(a(n)) = 0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 07 2012
A001227(a(n)) > 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, May 01 2012
Numbers that can be expressed as the sum of at least two consecutive integers; numbers that can be expressed as the difference of two nonconsecutive triangular numbers. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jul 27 2012
Except for the 1st term 0, these are the integers k such that 2*(2*k-1) divides binomial(2*k-1,k). See Ihringer & Kupavskii. - Michel Marcus, Oct 02 2017

FORMULA
a(n) = n + [log_2(n + [log_2(n)])] gives this sequence with the exception of a(1) = 1. - David W. Wilson, Mar 29 2005
Find k such that 2^k - (k + 1) <= n < 2^(k+1) - (k + 2), then a(n) = n + k + 1.
Numbers n = 2a(k) - 1, k > 0 are such that Sum_{k=0..n} B_k*M(n-k)*binomial(n, k) = 0 where B_k is the k-th Bernoulli number and M_k the k-th Motzkin number. - Benoit Cloitre, Oct 19 2005
From Robert Israel, May 05 2015: (Start)
G.f.: (1-x)^(-2)*Sum(m>=0, x^(2^m-m)*(2^m*x-2^m*x^2+x) + x^(2^(m+1)-m)*(2^(m+1)*x-2^(m+1)-x)).
a(i-m) = i for 2^m < i < 2^(m+1).
a(n) = A103586(n) + n for n >= 1. (End)
