A134169 Let P(A) be the power set of an n-element set A. Then a(n) = the number of pairs of elements {x,y} of P(A) for which either 0) x and y are disjoint and for which x is not a subset of y and y is not a subset of x, or 1) x and y are intersecting but for which x is not a subset of y and y is not a subset of x, or 2) x and y are intersecting and for which either x is a proper subset of y or y is a proper subset of x, or 3) x = y. 1

FORMULA

a(n) = 2^(n-1)*(2^n - 1) + 1 = StirlingS2(2^n,2^n - 1) + 1 = C(2^n,2) + 1 = A006516(n) + 1.

a(n)= 7*a(n-1) -14*a(n-2) +8*a(n-3). G.f.: (1-5*x+7*x^2)/((1-x) * (2*x-1) * (4*x-1)). [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Feb 15 2010]

EXAMPLE

a(2) = 7 because for P(A) = {{},{1},{2},{1,2}} we have for case 0

{{1},{2}} and we have for case 2 {{1},{1,2}}, {{2},{1,2}} and we have for

case 3 {{},{}}, {{1},{1}}, {{2},{2}}, {{1,2},{1,2}}. There are 0 {x,y} of

P(A) in this example that fall under case 1.
