A293576 Numbers n such that the set of exponents in expression for 2*n as a sum of distinct powers of 2 can be partitioned into two parts with equal sums. 2

More informally, this sequence encodes finite sets of positive numbers, say { e_1, e_2, ..., e_h }, such that +- e_1 +- e_2 ... +- e_h = 0 has a solution.
The set of exponents in expression for n as a sum of distinct powers of 2 corresponds to the n-th row of A133457.
No term can have a Hamming weight of 1 or 2.
If x and y belong to this sequence and x AND y = 0 (where AND stands for the bitwise and-operator), then x + y belongs to this sequence.
If k has an odd Hamming weight, then there are only a finite number of terms with the same odd part as k (see A000265 for the odd part of a number).
The number 2^k-1 belongs to this sequence iff A063865(k) > 0.
If k has Hamming weight > 1, then k + 2^(A029931(k)-1) belongs to this sequence.

EXAMPLE
2*42 = 2^6 + 2^4 + 2^2 and 6 = 4 + 2, hence 42 appears in the sequence.
2*11 = 2^4 + 2^2 + 2^1 and { 1, 2, 4 } cannot be partitioned into two parts with equals sums, hence 11 does not appear in the sequence.
