Let ϵ = ( ϵ n ) n 0 be the Thue-Morse sequence, i.e., the sequence defined by the recurrence equations: ϵ 0 = 1 , ϵ 2 n = ϵ n , ϵ 2 n + 1 = 1 - ϵ n . We consider { | n p | } n 1 , p 0 , the double sequence of Hankel determinants (modulo 2) associated with the Thue-Morse sequence. Together with three other sequences, it obeys a set of sixteen recurrence equations. It is shown to be automatic. Applications are given, namely to combinatorial properties of the Thue-Morse sequence and to the existence of certain Padé approximants of the power series n 0 ( - 1 ) ϵ n x n .
