%N a(n) = (8^n - 1)*3/7.

%C Fixed points of the mapping defined by A067585. In binary these numbers show a regular pattern: 0, 11, 11011, 11011011, 11011011011, etc.

%C From _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Feb 22 2010: (Start)

%C a(n) = A173593(6*n-5) for n > 0:

%C terms of A173593 beginning and ending with digits '11' in binary representation;

%C for n > 0: a(n) = A033129(3*n-1); a(n) - a(n-1) = A103333(n). (End)

%F a(n) = 3*A023001(n).

%F Recursion: a(0) = 0, a(n+1) = (((a(n)*2)*2+1)*2+1).
