Comments

A connected vertex set in a clutter is any union of a connected subset of the edges.

Examples

			There are four connected vertex sets of {{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}, namely {1,2,3}, {1,2}, {1,3}, {2,3}; there are three connected vertex sets of {{1,2},{1,3}}, {{1,2},{2,3}}, and {{1,3},{2,3}} each; and there is one connected vertex set of {{1,2,3}}. So we have a total of a(3) = 4 + 3 * 3 + 1 = 14 connected vertex sets.
