FORMULA

G.f.: A(x) = ((x-1)/x)*f(x) + ((1+x)/x^2)*g(x) - (1/x^2)*g(x)^2 where f(x) is g.f. for A059123 and 1+g(x) is g.f. for A001678. [Harary and E. M. Palmer, p. 62, Eq. (3.3.10) with extra -(1/x^2)*Hbar(x)^2 term which should be there according to eq.(3.3.14), p. 63, with eq.(3.3.9)].

MAPLE

with (powseries): with (combstruct): n := 30: Order := n+3: sys := {B = Prod(C, Z), S = Set(B, 1 <= card), C = Union(Z, S)}:

G001678 := (convert(gfseries(sys, unlabeled, x) [S(x)], polynom)) * x^2: G0temp := G001678 + x^2:

G059123 := G0temp / x + G0temp - (G0temp^2+eval(G0temp, x=x^2))/(2*x):

G000014 := ((x-1)/x) * G059123 + ((1+x)/x^2) * G0temp - (1/x^2) * G0temp^2:

A000014 := 0, seq(coeff(G000014, x^i), i=1..n); # from UlrSchimke(AT)aol.com
