Abstract

We obtain a representation of the number Kn of repetition-free Boolean functions of n variables over the elementary basis {&, ∨,¯} in the form of a convergent exponential power series. This representation is the simplest representation among a number of similar formulas containing different combinatorial numbers. The obtained result gives a possibility to find the asymptotics of Kn.
