%C From Peter C. Heinig (algorithms(AT)gmx.de), Apr 17 2007: (Start)

%C Number of n-tuples where each entry is chosen from the subsets of {1,2} such that the intersection of all n entries contains exactly one element.

%C There is the following general formula: The number T(n,k,r) of n-tuples where each entry is chosen from the subsets of {1,2,..,k} such that the intersection of all n entries contains exactly r elements is: T(n,k,r) = binomial(k,r) * (2^n - 1)^(k-r). This may be shown by exhibiting a bijection to a set whose cardinality is obviously binomial(k,r) * (2^n - 1)^(k-r), namely the set of all k-tuples where each entry is chosen from subsets of {1,..,n} in the following way: Exactly r entries must be {1,..,n} itself (there are binomial(k,r) ways to choose them) and the remaining (k-r) entries must be chosen from the 2^n-1 proper subsets of {1,..,n}, i.e., for each of the (k-r) entries, {1,..,n} is forbidden (there are, independent of the choice of the full entries, (2^n - 1)^(k-r) possibilities to do that, hence the formula). The bijection into this set is given by (X_1,..,X_n) |-> (Y_1,..,Y_k) where for each j in {1,..,k} and each i in {1,..,n}, i is in Y_j if and only if j is in X_i.

%C Examples: a(1)=2 because the two tuples of length one are: ({1}) and ({2}).

%C a(3)=14 because the fourteen tuples of length three are: ({1},{1},{1}), ({2},{2},{2}), ({1,2},{1},{1}), ({1},{1,2},{1}), ({1},{1},{1,2}), ({1,2},{2},{2}), ({2},{1,2},{2}), ({2},{2},{1,2}), ({1,2},{1,2},{1}), ({1,2},{1},{1,2}), ({1},{1,2},{1,2}), ({1,2}{1,2}{2}), ({1,2}{2}{1,2}), ({2}{1,2}{1,2}).

%C The image of this set of tuples under the bijection described in the comment is: ({1,2,3},{}), ({},{1,2,3}), ({1,2,3},{1}), ({1,2,3},{2}), ({1,2,3},{3}), ({1},{1,2,3}), ({2},{1,2,3}), ({3},{1,2,3}), ({1,2,3},{1,2}), ({1,2,3},{1,3}), ({1,2,3},{2,3}), ({1,2},{1,2,3}), ({1,3},{1,2,3}), ({2,3},{1,2,3}). Here exactly one entry is {1,..,n}={1,2,3} and the other is a proper subset. (End)

%C An elephant sequence, see A175654. For the corner squares just one A[5] vector, with decimal value 170, leads to this sequence. For the central square this vector leads to the companion sequence A151821. - _Johannes W. Meijer_, Aug 15 2010

%C Conjecture: a(n) is the least m>0 such that A007814(A000108(m)) = n, where A000108 gives the Catalan numbers and A007814(x) is the 2-adic valuation of x (cf. A048881). - _L. Edson Jeffery_, Nov 26 2015

%C Also, the decimal representation of the diagonal from the corner to the origin of the n-th stage of growth of the two-dimensional cellular automaton defined by "Rule 645", based on the 5-celled von Neumann neighborhood, initialized with a single black (ON) cell at stage zero. - _Robert Price_, Jul 19 2017
