Enumeration of labelled threshold graphs and a theorem of frobenius involving eulerian polynomials

We enumerate labelled threshold graphs by the number of vertices, the number of isolated vertices, and the number of distinct vertex-degrees and we give the exact asymptotics for the number of labelled threshold graphs withn vertices. We obtain the appropriate generating function and point out a combinatorial interpretation relating its coefficients to the Stirling numbers of the second kind. We use these results to derive a new proof of a theorem of Frobenius expressing the Eulerian polynomials in terms of the Stirling numbers.
