COMMENT

A proper antichain is an antichain iff each two of its members have a non-empty intersection.

Let P(A) be the power set of an n-element set A. Then a(n+1) = the number of pairs of elements {x,y} of P(A) for which x and y are intersecting but for which x is not a subset of y and y is not a subset of x. This is just a different formulation of the alternative sequence description. - Ross La Haye (rlahaye(AT)new.rr.com), Jan 09 2008
