Comments

Covering means there are no isolated vertices. A set system (set of sets) is an antichain if no part is a subset of any other, and is intersecting if no two parts are disjoint.

Examples

			The a(4) = 12 antichains:
  {{1,2,3,4}}
  {{1,2},{1,3,4},{2,3,4}}
  {{1,3},{1,2,4},{2,3,4}}
  {{1,4},{1,2,3},{2,3,4}}
  {{2,3},{1,2,4},{1,3,4}}
  {{2,4},{1,2,3},{1,3,4}}
  {{3,4},{1,2,3},{1,2,4}}
  {{1,2},{1,3},{1,4},{2,3,4}}
  {{1,2},{2,3},{2,4},{1,3,4}}
  {{1,3},{2,3},{3,4},{1,2,4}}
  {{1,4},{2,4},{3,4},{1,2,3}}
  {{1,2,3},{1,2,4},{1,3,4},{2,3,4}}
