The first line cuts the pancake into 2 pieces. For n > 1, the n-th line crosses every earlier line (avoids parallelism) and also avoids every previous line intersection, thus increasing the number of pieces by n. For 16 lines, for example, the number of pieces is 2 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + ... + 16 = 137. These are the triangular numbers plus 1 (cf. A000217).
m = (n-1)(n-2)/2 + 1 is also the smallest number of edges such that all graphs with n nodes and m edges are connected. - Keith Briggs, May 14 2004

Define a number of straight lines in the plane to be in general arrangement when (1) no two lines are parallel, (2) there is no point common to three lines. Then these are the maximal numbers of regions defined by n straight lines in general arrangement in the plane. - Peter C. Heinig (algorithms(AT)gmx.de), Oct 19 2006
Note that a(n) = a(n-1) + A000027(n-1). This has the following geometrical interpretation: Suppose there are already n-1 lines in general arrangement, thus defining the maximal number of regions in the plane obtainable by n-1 lines and now one more line is added in general arrangement. Then it will cut each of the n-1 lines and acquire intersection points which are in general arrangement. (See the comments on A000027 for general arrangement with points.) These points on the new line define the maximal number of regions in 1-space definable by n-1 points, hence this is A000027(n-1), where for A000027 an offset of 0 is assumed, that is, A000027(n-1) = (n+1)-1 = n. Each of these regions acts as a dividing wall, thereby creating as many new regions in addition to the a(n-1) regions already there, hence a(n) = a(n-1) + A000027(n-1). Cf. the comments on A000125 for an analogous interpretation. - Peter C. Heinig (algorithms(AT)gmx.de), Oct 19 2006
When constructing a zonohedron, one zone at a time, out of (up to) 3-d non-intersecting parallelepipeds, the n-th element of this sequence is the number of edges in the n-th zone added with the n-th "layer" of parallelepipeds. (Verified up to 10-zone zonohedron, the enneacontahedron.) E.g., adding the 10th zone to the enneacontahedron requires 46 parallel edges (edges in the 10th zone) by looking directly at a 5-valence vertex and counting visible vertices. - Shel Kaphan, Feb 16 2006

Also number of distinct sums of 1 through n where each of those can be + or -. E.g., {1+2,1-2,-1+2,-1-2} = {3,-1,1,-3} and a(2) = 4. - Toby Gottfried, Nov 17 2011
This sequence is complete because the sum of the first n terms is always greater than or equal to a(n+1)-1. Consequently, any nonnegative number can be written as a sum of distinct terms of this sequence. See A204009, A072638. - Frank M Jackson, Jan 09 2012

n points in general position determine "n choose 2" lines, so A055503(n) <= a(n(n-1)/2). If n > 3, the lines are not in general position and so A055503(n) < a(n(n-1)/2). - Jonathan Sondow, Dec 01 2015

From Klaus Purath, Jan 29 2020: (Start)
The odd prime factors != 7 occur in an interval of p successive terms either never or exactly twice, while 7 always occurs only once. If a prime factor p appears in a(n) and a(m) within such an interval, then n + m == -1 (mod p). When 7 divides a(n), then 2*n == -1 (mod 7). a(n) is never divisible by the prime numbers given in A003625.
While all prime factors p != 7 can occur to any power, a(n) is never divisible by 7^2. The prime factors are given in A045373. The prime terms of this sequence are given in A055469.

For n slices this obviously requires 2n endpoints, or 2n+1 if they are equally spaced, so if there are not enough "blobs", their number is accordingly increased. This is the distinction between "draw" (done when you change the slices or number of blobs by hand) and "suggest" (propose a new set of slices).]

From Hartmut F. W. Hoft, Jan 23 2017: (Start)
Shown by induction and direct (modular) computations for
column 1: Every number is even, except for the first two 1's; in addition to row 3, value 2 occurs in rows 4*k and 4*k+1, and every value in rows 4*k+2 and 4*k+3 is divisible by 4, for all k>=1.
column 2: The first four entries, 2, 2, 9 and 10, contain the only odd number; no nonzero entry in row k>3 has 9 as a factor, and value 0 occurs in rows 4*k+1 and 4*k+2, for all k>=1.
Conjecture:
a({1, 6, 8, 9, 10, 15, 26, 45, 48, 84, 96, 112, 115, 252, 336, 343}) =
  {1, 7, 9,10, 15, 17, 30, 49, 48,104,117, 115, 122, 257, 343, 395} are the only numbers in the sequence with the property a(n) >= n (verified through n=500500, i.e., the triangle with 1000 antidiagonals).
This conjecture together with Bouniakowsky's conjecture that certain quadratic integer polynomials generate infinitely many primes (e.g. see A002496 for n^2+1 and A188382 for 2*n^2+n+1) implies that in every column in the triangle infinitely many prime sequence indices occur and therefore infinitely many 0's whenever the column contains no 1's. The proof is based on the fact that for a large enough prime sequence index p in whose prior column no 1 occurs then a(p)=0; therefore infinitely many 0's occur in that column. Obviously, once value 1 occurs in a column no 0 value can occur in a subsequent row.
Conjecture:
Every row in the triangle contains exactly two 1's.

			After 6 terms, the array looks like:

We have a(6) = 7 because a(1) = 1, a(3) = 2, a(4) = 2, and a(5) = 2 divide 6; 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 7.

Expanded the triangle to the first 13 antidiagonals of the array, i.e. a(1) ... a(91), to show the start of the 2- and 0-value patterns in columns 1 and 2. The first 0 beyond column 2 is a(677) in row 27, column 11 of the triangle.
A188382(n)=2*n^2+n+1 for n>=0 are the alternate sequence indices for column 1 starting in row 1, 2*n^2+n+2 for n>=1 are the alternate sequence indices for column 2 starting in row 2, and 2*n^2+n+11 for n>=5 are the alternate sequence indices for column 11 starting in row 1.
The sequence indices in the triangle for row positions k>=1 in columns 1,..., 5 are given in sequences A000124(k), A152948(k+3), A152950(k+3), A145018(k+4) and A167499(k+4).
