Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Equals A054591 \ {1,3,4,10}.
The natural numbers may be divided into three sets: denominators which force membership in the Cantor set, denominators which deny membership in the Cantor set and denominators which neither force nor deny membership. The first set contains just the numbers 1, 3, 4, 10. The second set is A170944. The third set is the present sequence.
EXAMPLE
1/9 is in the Cantor set, but 4/9 is not.
