COMMENTS

A stable partition of a graph is a set partition of the vertices where no edge has both ends in the same block. The chromatic symmetric function is given by X_G = Sum_p m(t(p)) where the sum is over all stable partitions of G, t(p) is the integer partition whose parts are the block-sizes of p, and m is augmented monomial symmetric functions (see A321895). - _Gus Wiseman_, Nov 21 2018

EXAMPLE

From Gus Wiseman, Nov 21 2018: (Start)

The a(4) = 11 chromatic symmetric functions (m is the augmented monomial symmetric function basis):

m(1111)

m(211) + m(1111)

2m(211) + m(1111)

m(22) + 2m(211) + m(1111)

3m(211) + m(1111)

m(22) + 3m(211) + m(1111)

m(31) + 3m(211) + m(1111)

2m(22) + 4m(211) + m(1111)

m(22) + m(31) + 4m(211) + m(1111)

2m(22) + 2m(31) + 5m(211) + m(1111)

m(4) + 3m(22) + 4m(31) + 6m(211) + m(1111)
