%N Number of integers in n-th generation of tree T(-1/4) defined in Comments.

%C Let T* be the infinite tree with root 0 generated by these rules: if p is in T*, then p+1 is in T* and x*p is in T*. Let g(n) be the set of nodes in the n-th generation, so that g(0) = {0}, g(1) = {1}, g(2) = {2,x}, g(3) = {3,2x,x+1,x^2}, etc. Let T(r) be the tree obtained by substituting r for x.

%C See A274142 for a guide to related sequences.

%F a(n-1) = length of row n of the array in A274185.

%e For r = -1/4, we have g(3) = {3,2r,r+1, r^2}, in which the number of integers is a(3) = 1.

%t z = 18; t = Join[{{0}}, Expand[NestList[DeleteDuplicates[Flatten[Map[{# + 1, x*#} &, #], 1]] &, {1}, z]]];

%t u = Table[t[[k]] /. x -> -1/4, {k, 1, z}];

%t Table[Count[Map[IntegerQ, u[[k]]], True], {k, 1, z}]
