%C Given a pseudo-graph P of the set X = {1, 2, ..., n}, defined as a graph represented by the discrete topology on the set X (the power set of X), for n > 0, a(n) is the number of edges of the topological graph arising by deleting loops in P (see Theorem 3.3 in Kozae et al.).

%e For n = 3, the set X = {1,2,3},

%e the power set 2^X = {{}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {1,2}, {1,3}, {2,3}, X} and the pseudo-graph P represented by 2^X has the following edges, here grouped into...

%e simple loops:

%e {1} --- {1}, {2} --- {2}, {3} --- {3} for a total of 3.

%e double loops:

%e {1,2} --- {1,2}, {1,3} --- {1,3}, {2,3} --- {2,3} for a total of 6 simple loops.

%e triple loop:

%e X --- X for a total of 3 simple loops.

%e simple edges:

%e {1} --- {1,2}, {1} --- {1,3}, {1} --- X, {2} --- {1,2}, {2} --- {2,3}, {2} --- X, {3} --- {1,3}, {3} --- {2,3}, {3} --- X, {1,2} --- {1,3}, {1,2} --- {2,3}, {1,3} --- {2,3} for a total of 12.

%e double edges:

%e {1,2} --- X, {1,3} --- X, {2,3} --- X for a total of 6 simple edges.

%e By deleting the loops in P, there remain a total of a(3) = 12 + 6 = 18 edges for the topological graph arising from P.
