COMMENTS

a(0) and a(1) are chosen to be the smallest starting numbers greater than 1 that are believed to result in a sequence that doesn't cycle.

Empirical observation of the first 10^8 terms suggests that the sequence doesn't enter a cycle.

Conjectures: (i) This sequence doesn't enter a cycle. (ii) There is an integer greater than 1 that can never appear in this sequence.

EXAMPLE

a(2) = a(a(2-1) mod 2) + a(a(2-2) mod 2) = a(a(1) mod 2) + a(a(0) mod 2) = a(3 mod 2) + a(2 mod 2) = a(1) + a(0) = 3 + 2 = 5.
