A326961 Number of set-systems covering n vertices where every vertex is the unique common element of some subset of the edges, also called covering T_1 set-systems.

Same as A059523 except with a(1) = 1 instead of 2.
Alternatively, these are set-systems covering n vertices whose dual is a (strict) antichain. A set-system is a finite set of finite nonempty sets. The dual of a set-system has, for each vertex, one edge consisting of the indices (or positions) of the edges containing that vertex. An antichain is a set of sets, none of which is a subset of any other.

Examples

			The a(3) = 36 set-systems:
  {{1}{2}{3}}        {{12}{13}{23}{123}}     {{2}{3}{12}{13}{23}}
  {{12}{13}{23}}     {{1}{2}{3}{12}{13}}     {{2}{3}{12}{13}{123}}
  {{1}{2}{3}{12}}    {{1}{2}{3}{12}{23}}     {{2}{12}{13}{23}{123}}
  {{1}{2}{3}{13}}    {{1}{2}{3}{13}{23}}     {{3}{12}{13}{23}{123}}
  {{1}{2}{3}{23}}    {{1}{2}{12}{13}{23}}    {{1}{2}{3}{12}{13}{23}}
  {{1}{2}{13}{23}}   {{1}{2}{3}{12}{123}}    {{1}{2}{3}{12}{13}{123}}
  {{1}{2}{3}{123}}   {{1}{2}{3}{13}{123}}    {{1}{2}{3}{12}{23}{123}}
