COMMENTS

The periodic binary digits of 55/107 is the pattern sequence A291454(n)-1 which is the new bit introduced into a(n): a(n+1) = 2*a(n) + A291454(n) - 1.

FORMULA

a(n) = floor((110/127)*2^n).

D.g.f.: z^2*(z^5 + z^4 + z^2 + z + 1)/((2 - z) (1 - z^7)) = z * Dgf(A000225) * Dgf(A234046).

G.f.: x*(1 + x + x^3 + x^4 + x^5)/((1 - 2*x)*(1 - x^7)). - Stefano Spezia, May 04 2024

EXAMPLE

For n=10, playing 10 + 1 = 11 notes of the major scale (in Ionian mode), the 10 intervals between the pitches C D E F G A B C' D' E' F' expressed in halftones are 2, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 2, 2, 1, whose values diminished by one give the binary form '1101110110', which in decimal is 886, hence a(10) = 886.
