2Authored explanation

The recurrence is \[ b_0=1,\qquad b_{2m+1}=b_m,\qquad b_{4m}=b_m,\qquad b_{4m+2}=0. \] It produces \(1,1,0,1,1,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,\ldots\) and is equivalent to the candidate's binary-block definition. For \(B(z)=\sum b_nz^n\), splitting indices gives \(B(z)=B(z^4)+zB(z^2)\). In characteristic two, this reduces to \(B^3+zB+1=0\). Baum and Sweet's original work and the later continued-fraction papers concern this algebraic series.
