COMMENTS
Except for the initial term, 2^n appears 2^n times. - Lekraj Beedassy, May 26 2005
a(n) is the smallest k such that row k in triangle A265705 contains n. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Dec 17 2015
a(n) is the sum of totient function over powers of 2 <= n. - Anthony Browne, Jun 17 2016
Given positive n, reverse the bits of n and divide by 2^floor(log_2 n). Numerators are in A030101. Ignoring the initial 0, denominators are in this sequence. - Alonso del Arte, Feb 11 2020

FORMULA
a(n) = a(floor(n / 2)) * 2.
a(n) = 2^A000523(n).
From n >= 1 onward, A053644(n) = A062383(n)/2.
a(0) = 0, a(1) = 1 and a(n+1) = a(n)*floor(n/a(n)). - Benoit Cloitre, Aug 17 2002
G.f.: 1/(1 - x) * (x + Sum_{k >= 1} 2^(k - 1)*x^2^k). - Ralf Stephan, Apr 18 2003
a(n) = (A003817(n) + 1)/2 = A091940(n) + 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Feb 15 2004
a(n) = Sum_{k = 1..n} (floor(2^k/k) - floor((2^k - 1)/k))*A000010(k). - Anthony Browne, Jun 17 2016
a(2^m+k) = 2^m, m >= 0, 0 <= k < 2^m. - Yosu Yurramendi, Aug 07 2016
