FORMULA

Number of minimal m-covers of a labeled n-set that cover k points of that set uniquely is C(n, k)*S(k, m)*(2^m-m-1)^(n-k), where S(k, m) are Stirling numbers of the second kind.

EXAMPLE

[1], [16, 6], [160, 120, 25], [1280, 1440, 600, 90], ...; There are 305=160+120+25 minimal 3-covers of a labeled 5-set.
