%N Number of limit dominated binary relations on [n].

%C A relation R is limit dominated iff R converges to a single limit L (A365534) and R is contained in L.

%C A convergent relation R is limit dominated iff the following implication holds for all x,y in [n]. If (x,y) is in R then there is a cyclic traverse from x to y in G(R), where G(R) is the directed graph with loops associated to R.

%C A relation R is limit dominated iff it converges to L, the smallest transitive relation (A006905) containing R. In which case, L is the union of R^i for all i >= 1. - _Geoffrey Critzer_, Dec 03 2023
