COMMENTS

A T_1-hypergraph is a hypergraph (not necessarily without empty hyperedges or multiple hyperedges) which for every ordered pair of distinct nodes has a hyperedge containing one but not the other node.

FORMULA

a(n)=Sum_{k=0..C(n, floor(n/2))}b(k, n) where b(k, n) is the number of k-element ordered antichains on an unlabeled n-set.

EXAMPLE

a(1)=1+2=3; a(2)=1+3+1=5; a(3)=1+4+4+2=11; a(4)=1+5+10+19+25+30+30=120; a(5)=1+6+20+90+454+2206+8340+20580+38640+60480+60480=191297.

There are 11 ordered antichains on an unlabeled 3-set: 0, (0), ({1}), ({1,2}), ({1,2,3}), ({1},{2}), ({1},{2,3}), ({2,3},{1}), ({1,2},{1,3}), ({1},{2},{3}), ({1,2},{1,3},{2,3}).
