a(n) is the number of finite sets of compositions with total sum n. The case of constant sums is A358904, cf. A074854. The case of distinct sums is A304961, ordered A336127. The ordered version (sequences of distinct compositions) is A358907. - Gus Wiseman, Dec 12 2022

FORMULA
|
a(n) = Sum_{ partitions n = s_1 + ... + s_n } Product_{ Set{s_i} } C(2^(s_i - 1), m(s_i)), where the sum runs over all partitions of n, the product runs over the set of parts of a given partition, s_i is the i-th part in the set of parts, C(k, l) denotes the binomial coefficient and m(s_i) is the multiplicity of part s_i in the given partition.
a(n) ~ 2^n * exp(sqrt(2*n) - 1/4 + c) / (sqrt(2*Pi) * 2^(3/4) * n^(3/4)), where c = Sum_{k>=2} -(-1)^k / (k*(2^k-2)) = -0.207530918644117743551169251314627032059... - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 08 2018

EXAMPLE
|
Let a pair of parentheses () indicate a subhierarchy and let square brackets [] denote a set of subhierarchies, that is, a hierarchy (also called a society). Let the ranks be ordered from left to right and separated by a colon; e.g., (2:3) is a subhierarchy with three elements ("individuals") on top and two elements on the bottom rank.
Then the hierarchical ordering for n = 4 is composed of the following sets: [(1:1),(2)]; [(1),(3)]; [(1),(1:1:1)]; [(1),(2:1)]; [(1),(1:2)]; [(4)]; [(2:2)]; [(1:3)]; [(3:1)]; [(1:1:2)]; [(1:2:1)]; [(2:1:1)]; [(1:1:1:1)]; thus a(4) = 13.
For example, the following hierarchy is not allowed: [(1),(1),(1),(1)] because of the repetition of (1).
