A134045 Let P(A) be the power set of an n-element set A. Then a(n) = the number of pairs of elements {x,y} of P(A) for which either 0) x and y are disjoint and for which either x is a subset of y or y is a subset of x, or 1) x and y are intersecting but for which x is not a subset of y and y is not a subset of x, or 2) x = y. +0

FORMULA

a(n) = (1/2)(4^n - 3^(n+1) + 7*2^n - 3) = 3*StirlingS2(n+1,4) + 2*StirlingS2(n+1,2) + 1.

EXAMPLE

a(2) = 7 because for P(A) = {{},{1},{2},{1,2}} we have for case 0

{{},{1}}, {{},{2}}, {{},{1,2}} and we have for case 2 {{},{}}, {{1},{1}},

{{2},{2}}, {{1,2},{1,2}}. There are 0 {x,y} of P(A) in this example that

fall under case 1.
