%N Number of maximal antichains in rooted plane trees on n nodes.

%C Also the number of initial subtrees (emanating from the root) of rooted plane trees on n vertices, where we require that an initial subtree contains either all or none of the branchings under any given node. The leaves of such a subtree comprise the roots of a corresponding antichain cover. Also, in the (non-commutative) multicategory of free pure multifunctions with one atom, a(n) is the number of composable pairs whose composite has n positions. - _Gus Wiseman_, Aug 13 2018

%C The g.f. is denoted by y_2 in Bacher 2004 Proposition 7.5 on page 20. - _Michael Somos_, Nov 07 2019
