COMMENTS
Number of nonisomorphic graded posets with 0 and uniform hasse graph of rank n, with exactly 2 elements of each rank level above 0, for n > 0. (Uniform used in the sense of Retakh, Serconek and Wilson.) Here, we do not assume all maximal elements have maximal rank and thus use graded poset to mean: For every element x, all maximal chains among those with x as greatest element have the same finite length. - David Nacin, Feb 13 2012
