Integer Sets with Distinct Subset-Sums
Integer Sets with Distinct Subset-Sums
In Section 1 we introduce the problem of finding minimal-height sets of n natural numbers with distinct subset-sums (SSD), and in Section 2 review the well-known Conway-Guy sequence u, conjectured to yield a minimal SSD set for every n. We go on (Section 3) to prove that u certainly cannot …
