A353174 Irregular table T(n, k), n >= 0, k = 0..A352502(n-1); the n-th row lists in ascending order the numbers k in 0..n such that k and n-k can be added without carries in balanced ternary. 4

%N Irregular table T(n, k), n >= 0, k = 0..A352502(n-1); the n-th row lists in ascending order the numbers k in 0..n such that k and n-k can be added without carries in balanced ternary.

%C Two integers can be added without carries in balanced ternary if they have no equal nonzero digit at the same position.

%C This sequence has connections with A295989; here we work with balanced ternary, there with binary.

%C The set of points {(n, T(n, k))} has interesting fractal features, with voids in the form of Koch snowflakes (see illustration in Links section).
