COMMENT

L1 norm of (a,b,c,...) = |a|+|b|+|c|+...

A lower bound if n = 2^m >= 4: a(n) >= 2n^2 + Sum_{r=2..[log_2 n]} A(2^r,2^(r-1))*A(n,2^r,2^r); compare the Edel-Rains-Sloane paper and the tables of And and Andw mentioned here - N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Oct 12, 2001. This gives 40 in 4-D, 256 in 8-D (found also by Blokhuis), 2144 in 16-D, etc.

EXAMPLE

It is easier to take the norm to be 2. For n=2: { +-2 0, 0 +-2, +-1 +-1 }; for n=3: { 200 etc. (6) and 110 etc. (12) }; for n=4: { 2000 etc. (8), 1100 etc. (24), .5 .5 .5 .5 etc. (8) }.
