Comments

A set-system is a finite set of finite nonempty sets. Its elements are sometimes called edges. The dual of a set-system has, for each vertex, one edge consisting of the indices (or positions) of the edges containing that vertex. For example, the dual of {{1,2},{2,3}} is {{1},{1,2},{2}}. This sequence gives all BII-numbers (defined below) of set-systems that are cointersecting, meaning their dual is pairwise intersecting.

A binary index of n is any position of a 1 in its reversed binary expansion. The binary indices of n are row n of A048793. We define the set-system with BII-number n to be obtained by taking the binary indices of each binary index of n. Every set-system has a different BII-number. For example, 18 has reversed binary expansion (0,1,0,0,1), and since the binary indices of 2 and 5 are {2} and {1,3} respectively, the BII-number of {{2},{1,3}} is 18.

Examples

			The sequence of all cointersecting set-systems together with their BII-numbers begins:
   0: {}
   1: {{1}}
   2: {{2}}
   4: {{1,2}}
   5: {{1},{1,2}}
   6: {{2},{1,2}}
   7: {{1},{2},{1,2}}
   8: {{3}}
  16: {{1,3}}
  17: {{1},{1,3}}
  24: {{3},{1,3}}
  25: {{1},{3},{1,3}}
  32: {{2,3}}
  34: {{2},{2,3}}
  40: {{3},{2,3}}
  42: {{2},{3},{2,3}}
  52: {{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}
  53: {{1},{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}
  54: {{2},{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}
  55: {{1},{2},{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}
