COMMENTS

If you choose to adjoin a top and a bottom element to each resulting lattice, you must add 2 to these cardinalities: see A137400.

EXAMPLE

When n = 0, the lattice consists of the two elements, their meet and their join, so a(0) = 4. When n = 1, we get the free modular lattice generated by three elements, so a(1) = 28.
