Permutation of natural numbers: a(0) = 0, a(lucky(n)) = 1 + 2*a(n-1), a(unlucky(n)) = 2*a(n), where lucky(n) = n-th lucky number A000959, unlucky(n) = n-th unlucky number A050505.

In other words, after a(0) = 0, if n is the k-th lucky number [i.e., n = A000959(k)], a(n) = 1 + 2*a(k-1); otherwise, when n is the k-th unlucky number [i.e., n = A050505(k)], a(n) = 2*a(k).
Because all lucky numbers are odd, it means that odd numbers occur in odd positions only (together with some even numbers, for each one of which there is a separate infinite cycle), while the even positions contain only even numbers.

a(0) = 0; for n >= 1: if A145649(n) = 1 [i.e., if n is lucky], then a(n) = 1+(2*a(A109497(n)-1)), otherwise a(n) = 2*a(n-A109497(n)). [Where A109497(n) gives the number of lucky numbers <= n.]
As a composition of other permutations. For all n >= 1:

Cf. also A257690 (another similar permutation, but with a slightly different definition, resulting the first differing term at n=13, where a(13) = 9, while A257690(13) = 11).
