%Y Without the choice condition we have A006125, unlabeled A000088.

%Y The case of a unique choice is A088957, unlabeled A087803.

%Y The case without loops is A367867, covering A367868.

%Y For edges of any positive size we have A367903, complement A367902.

%Y For exactly n edges we have A368596, complement A333331 (maybe).

%Y The complement is counted by A368927, covering A369140.

%Y The covering case is A369142.

%Y For n edges and no loops we have A369143, covering A369144.

%Y The unlabeled version is A369146 (covering A369147), complement A369145.

%Y A000085, A100861, A111924 count set partitions into singletons or pairs.

%Y A006129 counts covering graphs, unlabeled A002494.

%Y A054548 counts graphs covering n vertices with k edges, with loops A369199.

%Y A133686 counts choosable graphs, covering A367869.

%Y A322661 counts labeled covering loop-graphs, unlabeled A322700.
