COMMENTS

A hyperforest is an antichain of finite nonempty sets (edges) whose connected components are hypertrees. It is spanning if all vertices are covered by some edge. However, it is common to represent uncovered vertices as singleton edges. For example, {{1,2},{1,4}} and {{3},{1,2},{1,4}} may represent the same hyperforest, the former being free of singletons (see example 2) and the latter being spanning (see example 1). This is different from a hyperforest with singleton edges allowed, which is one whose non-singleton edges only are required to form an antichain. For example, {{1},{2},{1,3},{2,3}} is a hyperforest with singleton edges allowed. - Gus Wiseman, May 22 2018
Equivalently, number of block graphs on n nodes, that is, graphs where every block is a complete graph. These graphs can be characterized as induced-diamond-free chordal graphs. - Falk Hüffner, Jul 25 2019

FORMULA

a(n) = Sum of prod_{k=1}^n\,{A035053(k) + c_k -1 /choose c_k} over all the partitions of n, c_1 + 2c_2 + ... + nc_n; c_1, c_2, ..., c_n >= 0. - Washington Bomfim, Sep 25 2008
a(n) ~ c * d^n / n^(5/2), where d = 4.189610958393826965527036454524... (see A245566), c = 0.36483930544... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 26 2014

EXAMPLE
|
Non-isomorphic representatives of the a(4) = 9 spanning hyperforests are the following:
{{1,2,3,4}}
{{1},{2,3,4}}
{{1,2},{3,4}}
{{1,4},{2,3,4}}
{{1},{2},{3,4}}
{{1},{2,4},{3,4}}
{{1,3},{2,4},{3,4}}
{{1,4},{2,4},{3,4}}
{{1},{2},{3},{4}}
Non-isomorphic representatives of the a(4) = 9 hyperforests spanning up to 4 vertices without singleton edges are the following:
{}
{{1,2}}
{{1,2,3}}
{{1,2,3,4}}
{{1,2},{3,4}}
{{1,3},{2,3}}
{{1,4},{2,3,4}}
{{1,3},{2,4},{3,4}}
{{1,4},{2,4},{3,4}}
