Hi, I only need to solve Question 4.

Problem 3: Let F(n) be the number of set partitions of [n] with no singleton blocks.
Show that
B(n) = F(n) + F(n+ 1)
where B(n) is the Bell number counting all set partitions of [n].

Expert Solution
Step 1

Suppose first T1 is a bad partition of n then we can form a good partition of n+1.

By gathering all the singleton of T1 into single blocks and putting n+1 into that block conversely. 

If T1 is a good partition of n+1 Newton form a bad partition of n. By taking the block of T1 containing n+1

throwing away n+1 and converting the rest of the block to singletons. These operations are increase of each other and establish n+1. This immediately give us a recurrence 

 Fn+1=Bn-FnBn= Fn+Fn+1
