COMMENT

Sometimes called Hosten-Morris numbers.

Also the number of simplicial complexes on the set {1, ..., n-1} such that no pair of faces covers all of {1, ..., n-1}. [Miller-Sturmfels]. - N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Feb 18 2008

Also the maximal number of generators of a neighborly monomial ideal in n variables. [Miller-Sturmfels]. - N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Feb 18 2008

Also the number of intersecting antichains on a labeled (n-1)-set or (n-1)-variable Boolean functions in the Post class F(7,2). Cf. A059090. - Vladeta Jovovic, Goran Kilibarda (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Dec 28 2000

Also the number of nondominated coteries on n members. - D. E. Knuth Sep 01 2005

The number of maximal families of intersecting subsets of an n element set. - Bridget Eileen Tenner (bridget(AT)math.mit.edu), Nov 16 2006
