%N A100070 Number a(n) of forests with two components in the complete bipartite
graph K_{n,n}.
%C A100070 This sequence (a(n)) appears to dominate the sequence (n^{2n-2}) of the
number of spanning trees in K_{n,n} for n>1. This shows that the
sequence of independent set numbers for the cycle matroid of K_{n,
n} is not monotone increasing unlike the complete graph K_{n}.

%F A100070 a(n)=2(n^{2}-n))^{n-1}+(1/2!) sum_{x, y\in [n-1]}b(n, x, y), where b(n,
x, y)=binom{n}{x} binom{n}{y}x^{y-1}y^{x-1}(n-x)^{n-y-1}(n-y)^{n-x-1}
%e A100070 a(2)=6 because K_{2,2} is C_{4} the cycle of length 4 and there are 6
forests with two components in C_{4}.
