Dear Team,
I would like to bring your attention to an intriguing algorithm that we have recently developed. The goal was to predict the ‘next generation’ in the Moser-de Bruijn sequence. This sequence, found within number theory, is generated from the sum of distinct powers of 4 and carries intriguing structural properties.
Our algorithm begins with a generator bit sequence, ‘g’, which we defined as the bit representation of the ‘current generation’. The ‘next generation’ (which we termed ‘a’) is then generated from ‘g’ through a series of simple steps.
First, we construct ‘a’ as the concatenation of four parts: a string of zeros the length of ‘g’, another string of zeros of the same length, and two copies of the latter half of ‘g’. This creates a sequence ‘a’ that is twice the length of ‘g’.
Second, in the third quarter of ‘a’, we alternately maintain and replace the one bits. This operation emulates a growth phenomenon reminiscent of Fibonacci’s rabbit reproduction puzzle, resulting in a ~50% growth.
Lastly, minor modifications are made to ‘a’ to arrive at the final sequence for the next generation. These modifications include changing specific bit positions in ‘a’, specifically the last bit of the first half of ‘a’ and the final bit of ‘a’ itself.
While our research is in the early stages, the preliminary results are promising. This algorithm provides a potential method to predict the Moser-de Bruijn sequence without resorting to the base-4 representation. It has been successful for the tested bit levels, but further testing and rule refinement might be necessary for validation of this method.
Thank you for your attention.
