%N Number of non-isomorphic minimal deterministic finite automata with n transient states recognizing a finite binary language.

%C Using parking functions, Priez obtained an exact enumerative formula for the number of non-isomorphic minimal deterministic finite automata (MADFA) with n states recognizing a finite language over an alphabet of size k > 0 (Priez, 2015). An exact generation of MADFAs is given by Almeida et al. (2008). In that paper, exact enumerative formulae for the number of MADFA with n states for 1 < n < 6 and any alphabet size are also presented. - _Nelma Moreira_, Mar 08 2021

%F a(n) = b(n,n), where the sequence b(n,m) = 2*b(n,m-1) + (m+1)*b(n-1,m) - m*b(n-2,m-1) for n >= m > 1, b(n,1) = b(n,0) + 2*b(n-1,1) for n >= 1, b(n,0) = 1 for n >= 0.

%F For any k > 0, m(k,n) with m(k,1)=1 and s(2*m^k-1,n) = Sum_{t=1..n} (binomial(n-1,t-1) * s(2*(m+t)^k-t-1,n-t) * m(k,t)) where s(x,n) enumerates x-parking functions (Priez, 2015). - _Nelma Moreira_, Mar 08 2021

%Y Cf. A059412 (minimal unary DFAs).

%Y A082161 (2^(n-1)*A082161(n)) is an upper bound; furthermore these are not necessarily minimal but acyclic binary DFAs without (!) accepting states.

%Y A288950 (2^(n-1)*A288950(n)) is a lower bound.
