COMMENT
|
A covering of a set is a tricovering if every element of the set is covered by exactly three blocks of the covering.
If Y is a 4-subset of an n-set X then, for n>=6, a(n-3) is the number of 3-subsets of X having at most one element in common with Y. - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Dec 08 2007

FORMULA
|
a(n)=binomial(n+3, 3)-6*binomial(n+1, 1)+8*binomial(n, 0)-3*binomial(n-1, -1); G.f.: -y^3*(-4+3*y)/(-1+y)^4; E.g.f. for ordered k-block tricoverings of an unlabeled n-set is exp(-x+x^2/2+x^3/3*y/(1-y))*Sum_{k=0..inf}1/(1-y)^binomial(k, 3)*exp(-x^2/2*1/(1-y)^n)*x^k/k!.
a(n) = (n+9)*binomial(n-1, 2)/3.
a(n)=(n-2)(n-1)(n+9)/6. - Zak Seidov, Jun 15 2006
Essentially the same as A026054. - Vladeta Jovovic, Jun 15 2006
