COMMENTS
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 set-system (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. Elements of a set-system are sometimes called edges.
We define the cut-connectivity (A326786, A327237), of a set-system to be the minimum number of vertices that must be removed (along with any resulting empty edges) to obtain a disconnected or empty set-system, with the exception that a set-system with one vertex and no edges has cut-connectivity 1. Except for cointersecting set-systems (A326853, A327039), this is the same as vertex-connectivity (A327334, A327051).
EXAMPLE
The sequence of all set-systems with cut-connectivity 2 together with their BII-numbers begins:
4: {{1,2}}
5: {{1},{1,2}}
6: {{2},{1,2}}
7: {{1},{2},{1,2}}
16: {{1,3}}
17: {{1},{1,3}}
24: {{3},{1,3}}
25: {{1},{3},{1,3}}
32: {{2,3}}
34: {{2},{2,3}}
40: {{3},{2,3}}
42: {{2},{3},{2,3}}
256: {{1,4}}
257: {{1},{1,4}}
384: {{4},{1,4}}
385: {{1},{4},{1,4}}
512: {{2,4}}
514: {{2},{2,4}}
640: {{4},{2,4}}
642: {{2},{4},{2,4}}
The first term involving an edge of size 3 is 832: {{1,2,3},{1,4},{2,4}}.
