COMMENTS

Labeled posets where for all a,b,c in the set, do not have a<b<c. (Equivalently, labeled posets with no chain of length 3; 3-avoiding posets.)  Labeled digraphs where every node has indegree 0 or outdegree 0.

FORMULA

Sum((-1)^k*C(n, k)*A047863(k), k=0..n).

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n, k)*(2^k-1)^(n-k). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Apr 04 2003

E.g.f. A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} exp((2^k-1)*x)*x^n/n!. - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Nov 27 2007

O.g.f.: Sum_{n>=0} x^n/(1 - (2^n - 1)*x)^(n+1) = Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n. [From Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Sep 15 2009]

MATHEMATICA

Join[{1}, Table[Sum[Binomial[n, k](2^k-1)^(n-k), {k, n}], {n, 20}]] (* From Harvey P. Dale, Jan 05 2012 *)

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=n!*polcoeff(sum(k=0, n, exp((2^k-1)*x)*x^k/k!), n)} - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Nov 27 2007

(PARI) {a(n)=polcoeff(sum(k=0, n, x^k/(1-(2^k-1)*x +x*O(x^n))^(k+1)), n)} [From Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Sep 15 2009]
