%N Trajectory of 1 under repeated application of the function n -> A102370(n).

%C Agrees with A103127 for the first 511 terms, but then diverges. If a(n) is the present sequence and b(n) is A103127 we have:

%C .n...a(n)..b(n)..difference

%C .....................

%C 509, 2033, 2033, 0

%C 510, 2035, 2035, 0

%C 511, 2037, 2037, 0

%C 512, 4095, 2047, 2048

%C 513, 4097, 2049, 2048

%C 514, 4099, 2051, 2048

%C 515, 4101, 2053, 2048

%C 516, 4111, 2063, 2048

%C .....................

%C The sequence may be computed as follows (from _Philippe Deléham_, May 08 2005).

%C Start with -1, 1. Then add powers of 2 whose exponent n is not in A034797: 1, 3, 11, 2059, 2^2059 + 2059, ... This gives

%C Step 0: -1, 1

%C Step 1: add 2^2 = 4, getting 3, 5 and thus -1, 1, 3, 5.

%C Step 2: add 2^4 = 16, getting 15, 17, 19, 21 and thus -1, 1, 3, 5, 15, 17, 19, 21

%C Step 3: add 2^5 = 32, getting 31, 33, 35, 37, 47, 49, 51, 53 and thus -1, 1, 3, 5, 15, 17, 19, 21, 31, 33, 35, 37, 47, 49, 51, 53, etc.

%C The jump 2037 --> 4095 for n = 510 -> 511 is explained by the fact that we pass directly from 2^10 to 2^12 since 11 belongs to A034797.

%C The trajectories of 2 (A103747) and 7 (A103621) may surely be obtained in a similar way.
