%N Cut-connectivity of the set-system with BII-number n.

%C A binary index of n is any position of a 1 in its reversed binary expansion. The binary indices of n are row n of A048793. 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 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, the BII-number of {{2},{1,3}} is 18.

%C Elements of a set-system are sometimes called edges. The cut-connectivity of a set-system is the minimum number of vertices that must be removed (together with any resulting empty or duplicate edges) to obtain a disconnected or empty set-system. Except for cointersecting set-systems (A326853), this is the same as vertex-connectivity (A327051).

%e Positions of first appearances of each integer, together with the corresponding set-systems, are:

%e 0: {}

%e 1: {{1}}

%e 4: {{1,2}}

%e 52: {{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}

%e 2868: {{1,2},{1,3},{2,3},{1,4},{2,4},{3,4}}
