%N Number of 4-element ordered antichains on an unlabeled n-element set; T_1-hypergraphs with 4 labeled nodes and n hyperedges.

%C T_1-hypergraph is a hypergraph (not necessarily without empty hyperedges or multiple hyperedges) which for every ordered pair of distinct nodes has a hyperedge containing one but not the other node.
