%N Number of permutations of length n with 2 consecutive ascending pairs.
%C From _Emeric Deutsch_, May 25 2009: (Start)
%C a(n) = number of excedances in all derangements of [n-1]. Example: a(5)=18 because the derangements of {1,2,3,4} are 4*123, 3*14*2, 3*4*12, 4*3*12, 2*14*3, 2*4*13, 2*3*4*1, 3*4*21, 4*3*21 with the 18 excedances marked. An excedance of a permutation p is a position i such that p(i)>i.
%C a(n) = Sum(k*A046739(n,k), k>=1).
%C (End)
%C Appears to be the inverse binomial transform of A001286 (filling the two leading zeros in there), then shifting one place to the right. _R. J. Mathar_, Apr 04 2012
