Summary

Description

A big tree with small trees as nodes and leaves
The leaves are elements of the nested set V4 - and therefore correspond to integers 0...15

The leaves are the trees from this file, and correspond to nested sets.


This tree refines the concept of weight of a binary number:

  • The root is the set of all non-negative integers.
  • The direct children of the root are the sets of integers with a certain binary weight:
Knot 1 is the set of integers with weight 1 (i.e. powers of 2), knot 2 the set of integers with weight 2, etc.
  • The knots in the next row specify the weight of n in the n-th digit:
The first non-leaf knot (black 1 and white 1) is the set of Fermat powers of 2, i.e. integers of the form 2^2^n.

The 16 leaves are 4-bit binary numbers, and the number of knots including root and leaves is 43.

The number of knots for n-bit binary numbers with n=0..4 is 2,4,9,20,43 (possibly Sloane'sA123720).
