COMMENTS
This representation is the tribonacci A000073 analog of the Wythoff representation of numbers (A189921 or A317208) for the Fibonacci case.
The complementary and disjoint sets A, B and C are given by the sequences A278040, A278039, and A278041, respectively.
The present representation uses 1 for B, 2 for A and 3 for C numbers. The brackets for sequence iteration and the final argument 0 have to be added. E.g.: a(0) = 1 for B(1), a(1) = 21 for A(B(0)), a(2) = 121 for B(A(B(0))), a(3) = 31 for C(B(0)), ...
An equivalent such representation is given by A317206 using different complementary sequences A, B and C, related to our B = A278039, A = A278040, and C = A278041: A(n) = A003144(n) = A278039(n-1) + 1, B(n) = A003145(n) = A278040(n-1) + 1, C(n) = A003146(n) = A278041(n-1) + 1 with n >= 1.
The length of the string a(n) is A316714(n). The number of B, A and C sequences used for the ABC-representation of n (that is the number of 1s, 2s and 3s of a(n)) is A316715, A316716 and A316717, respectively.
