a(n) counts the Brauer addition chains for n, which are equivalent to star chains. In a Brauer chain, each element after the first is the sum of any previous element with the immediately previous element. This sequence counts all Brauer chains for n, not just the minimal ones, which are given by A079301. - David W. Wilson, Apr 01 2006
In other words, a(n) = the number of increasing star addition chains ending in n.

Examples

			a(5)=3 because 1,2,3,4,5; 1,2,3,5; 1,2,4,5 are star-kind addition chains.
a(8)=20 because there are 21 increasing addition chains up to 8, but 1,2,4,5,8 is not a star chain.

n = 12509 is the first n for which a(n) = 0 because it is the smallest number that has no shortest addition chain of Brauer type. - Hugo Pfoertner, Jun 10 2006 [Edited by Pontus von Brömssen, Apr 25 2025]

Examples

			a(23)=5 because 23=1+1+2+1+4+9+5 is the shortest addition chain for 23.
For n=9 there are A079301(9)=3 different shortest addition chains, all of Brauer type:
[1 2 3 6 9] -> 9=1+1+1+3+3 -> 2 different addends {1,3}
[1 2 4 5 9] -> 9=1+1+2+1+4 -> 3 different addends {1,2,4}
[1 2 4 8 9] -> 9=1+1+2+4+1 -> 3 different addends {1,2,4}
The minimum number of different addends is 2, therefore a(9)=2.
