COMMENTS

This sequence may be equivalent to A008929, but has a somewhat different definition. The size of the smallest subset counted by this sequence, for a given n, is given in A066063.

Contribution from S. R. Finch (Steven.Finch(AT)inria.fr), Mar 15 2009: (Start)

Such sets S are called additive 2-bases for {0,1,2,...,n}.

a(n) is also the number of symmetric numerical sets S with atom monoid A(S) equal to {0,2n+2,2n+3,2n+4,2n+5,...}. (End)

EXAMPLE

For n=2, the definition obviously requires that S contain both 0 and 1. The only subsets of {0,1,2} that do this are {0,1} and {0,1,2}. For both of these, we have 0=0+0, 1=0+1, 2=1+1, so a(2)=2.
