%N Number of simple graphs covering {1..n} with no crossing or nesting edges.

%C Covering means there are no isolated vertices. Two edges {a,b}, {c,d} are crossing if a < c < b < d or c < a < d < b, and nesting if a < c < d < b or c < a < b < d.

%C Is this (apart from offsets) the same as A073717? - _R. J. Mathar_, Jul 04 2019

%Y The case for set partitions is A001519.

%Y Covering simple graphs are A006129.

%Y The case with just nesting or just crossing edges forbidden is A324169.

%Y The binomial transform is the non-covering case A326244.
