Comments

An antichain is non-crossing if no pair of distinct parts is of the form {{...x...y...}, {...z...t...}} where x < z < y < t or z < x < t < y.

Examples

			The a(3) = 9 antichains:
  {{1,2,3}}
  {{1},{2,3}}
  {{2},{1,3}}
  {{3},{1,2}}
  {{1,2},{1,3}}
  {{1,2},{2,3}}
  {{1,3},{2,3}}
  {{1},{2},{3}}
  {{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}
