Comments

A binary index of n is any position of a 1 in its reversed binary expansion. We define the set-system with BII-number n to be obtained by taking the binary indices of each binary index of n. Every finite set of finite nonempty sets of positive integers has a different BII-number. For example, 18 has reversed binary expansion (0,1,0,0,1), and since the binary indices of 2 and 5 are {2} and {1,3} respectively, it follows that the BII-number of {{2},{1,3}} is 18. The weight of a set-system is the sum of sizes of its elements (sometimes called its edges).

Formula

a(2^x + ... + 2^z) = w(x + 1) + ... + w(z + 1), where x...z are distinct nonnegative integers and w = A000120. For example, a(6) = a(2^2 + 2^1) = w(3) + w(2) = 3.

Example

The sequence of set-systems together with their BII-numbers begins:
   0: {}
   1: {{1}}
   2: {{2}}
   3: {{1},{2}}
   4: {{1,2}}
   5: {{1},{1,2}}
   6: {{2},{1,2}}
   7: {{1},{2},{1,2}}
   8: {{3}}
   9: {{1},{3}}
  10: {{2},{3}}
  11: {{1},{2},{3}}
  12: {{1,2},{3}}
  13: {{1},{1,2},{3}}
  14: {{2},{1,2},{3}}
  15: {{1},{2},{1,2},{3}}
  16: {{1,3}}
  17: {{1},{1,3}}
  18: {{2},{1,3}}
  19: {{1},{2},{1,3}}
  20: {{1,2},{1,3}}
