COMMENTS

a(0), a(1), ... is the fixed point of inflation morphism 1 -> 1 3, 2 -> 2 3, 3 -> 1 4, 4 -> 2 4, starting from state 1;

b(0), b(1), ... is the image of a(n) under encoding morphism 1 -> 0, 2 -> 1, 3 -> 0, 4 -> 1.

The number-wall over the rationals (signed Hankel determinants) is apparently free from zeros.
