Comments

A cover of a set is a T_0-cover if for every two distinct points of the set there exists a member (block) of the cover containing one but not the other point.

From Gus Wiseman, Aug 13 2019: (Start)

A set-system is a finite set of finite nonempty sets. The dual of a set-system has, for each vertex, one edge consisting of the indices (or positions) of the edges containing that vertex. For example, the dual of {{1,2},{2,3}} is {{1},{1,2},{2}}. The T_0 condition means that the dual is strict (no repeated edges). For example, the a(2) = 4 covers are:

{{1},{2}}

{{1},{1,2}}

{{2},{1,2}}

{{1},{2},{1,2}}

Formula

a(n) = Sum_{i=0..n+1} stirling1(n+1, i)*2^(2^(i-1)-1).

a(n) = Sum_{m=0..2^n-1} A059202(n,m).
