a(1)=1; a(n+1) is the smallest integer > a(n) such that C_2k(a(n+1))=C_2k(a(n)) for k large enough, where C_m(n) is the modified Collatz map iterated m times on n ( x->x/2 if x is even x->(3x+1)/2 if x is odd).

FORMULA
a(n+1) = min (k>a(n) : A076057(k)=A076057(a(n))). a(n) seems to be asymptotic to 2*n and a(n)=2*n for some n (5, 14, 43, 54, 72, 93, ...)
