a(n) is the number of solutions, j >= 0 and 2 <= m_1 <= ... <= m_n, of the equation Sum_{k=1..n} F(m_k) = 2^j where F(i) is the i-th Fibonacci number.

COMMENTS

The difficulty of this sequence comes in determining which is the largest j in a solution for a(n), equivalently the last nonzero term in each sum from the A319394-based formula in the formula section.
a(2) derives from Bravo and Luca, a(3) from Bravo and Bravo, a(4) from Pagdame Tiebekabe and Diouf. Pagdame has indicated A356928(5), from which a(5) is derived, has been determined.
a(6) >= 178, a(7) >= 478.

FORMULA

a(n) = Sum_{i >= 0} A319394(2^i, k).

EXAMPLE
|
For n = 2, the a(2) = 6 solutions are j = 1 with (2,2), j = 2 with (2,4) and (3,3), j = 3 with (4,5), j = 4 with (4,7) and (6,6) according to the paper of Bravo and Luca. [That is, 2 = 1+1, 4 = 1+3 = 2+2, 8 = 3+5, 16 = 3+13 = 8+8.]
