COMMENTS
A graph is point-determining if no two vertices have the same set of neighbors. This kind of graph is also called a mating graph.

EXAMPLE
Consider n = 3. The triangle graph is point-determining, but it is not bipartite, so it is not counted in a(3). The graph *--*--* is bipartite, but it is not point-determining (the vertices on the two ends have the same neighborhood), so it is also not counted in a(3). The only graph counted in a(3) is the graph *--* *. - Justin M. Troyka, Nov 27 2013
