FORMULA

a(n)=-h(n, -1) where h(n, x) is the Hermite polynomial h(n, x)=sum(k=0, floor(n/2), (-1)^k*binomial(n, 2*k)*prod(i=0, k, 2*i-1)*x^(n-2*k)) - Benoit Cloitre, May 01 2003

a(n)=(-1)^(n+1)*sum(k=0, floor(n/2), (-1)^k*C(n, 2*k)*(2k-1)!!) - Benoit Cloitre, May 01 2003

a(0)=1, a(1)=-1; a(n)=-a(n-1)-(n-1)*a(n-2) - Matthew J. White (mattjameswhite(AT)hotmail.com), Mar 01 2006

G.f.: 1/(U(0) + x) where U(k)=  1 + x*(k+1) - x*(k+1)/(1 + x/U(k+1)) ; (continued fraction, 2-step). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Oct 12 2012

G.f.: 1/U(0) where U(k)=  1 + x + x^2*(k+1)/U(k+1) ; (continued fraction, 1-step). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Nov 04 2012

G.f.: 1/Q(0), where Q(k)= 1 + x*k + x/(1 - x*(k+1)/Q(k+1)); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Apr 17 2013
