COMMENT

Starting from n ones and n zero's cf. A006840, the simplification can remove subsets of ones with vector sum equal to zero, thus lowering the count of ones in the simplified bracelet.

The count is lower than A077079 because the absolute vector sums can be equal without being symmetrically related.

EXAMPLE

The 35 bracelets for n=6 simplify to the following 20: {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,1,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1}, {0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,1,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,0,1}, {0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1}, {0,0,1,0,1,0,1,1,0,1,0,1}
