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], [55, 10], [1815, 660, 65], [46585, 25410, 5005, 350], ...; there are 1815 minimal 4-covers of a labeled 6-set that cover 4 points of that set uniquely.
