= 1).
%C A144293 Contribution from David Pasino (davpas(AT)charter.net), Dec 03 2008:
(Start)
%C A144293 The number of refinements of a partition is the product of the Bell numbers
of the cell sizes.
%C A144293 The number of encoarsements is the Bell number of the number of cells.
%C A144293 For these to be equal, a Bell number has to be a product of Bell numbers.
%C A144293 This happens if there are n-1 single-element cells and 1 n-element cell.
%C A144293 Does it ever happen otherwise? (End)
