%C a(n) is the third row of the array in A141803. - _Andrey Zabolotskiy_, May 16 2016

%C This is the fixed point of the morphism 0->0123, 1->1230, 2->2301, 3->3012 starting with 0. Let t be the (nonperiodic) sequence of positions of 0, and likewise, u for 1, v for 2, and w for 3; then t(n)/n -> 4, u(n)/n -> 4, v(n)/n -> 4, w(n)/n -> 4, and t(n) + u(n) + v(n) + w(n) = 16*n - 6 for n >= 1. - _Clark Kimberling_, May 31 2017
