Comments

a(n), or Asigma(n), equals the number of sigma-admissible subsets of {1,2,...,n}.

Alternate description: (1) Asigma(k) is the same as the number of additive 2-bases for k which are not additive 2-bases for k+1. (2) Asigma(n) is the number of vertices at height n in the rooted tree in figure 5 of [Marzuola-Miller] which spawn only one vertex at height n+1. [Jeremy L. Marzuola (marzuola(AT)math.uni-bonn.de), Aug 08 2009]

The number of symmetric numerical sets S with atom monoid A(S) equal to {0,n+1,2n+2,2n+3,2n+4,2n+5,...}

Formula

Recursively related to A164047 by the formula Asigma(2k+1)' = 2Asigma(2k)'-Asigma(k)

Example

a(1)=a(3)=1 since {0,2,4,5,6,7,...} and {0,1,4,5,8,9,10,11,...} are the only sets satisfying the required conditions.
