FORMULA
|
Let b(n) = 0, 1, -1, 1, 1, -13,.. be the sequence with all signs but one reversed: b(1)=a(1), b(n)=-a(n) for n<>1. Define the e.g.f. B(x) = 2*Sum_{n>=0} b(n)*(x/2)^n/n!. B(x) satisfies exp(B(x)) = 1 + 2*x - B(x). [Bernstein/Sloane S52]
Similarly, c(0)=1, c(n)=-a(n+1) are the alternating row sums of the second-order Eulerian numbers A340556, or c(n) = E2poly(n,-1). - Peter Luschny, Feb 13 2021
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} (n+k-1)!*Sum_{j=0..k} ((-1)^(j)/(k-j)!*Sum_{i=0..j} (((1/i!)* Stirling1(n-i+j-1,j-i))/(n-i+j-1)!))*2^(n-j-1))), n > 0, a(0)=1. - Vladimir Kruchinin, Nov 11 2012
Continued fractions:
G.f.: 2*x - x/G(0) where G(k) = 1 - 2*x*k + x*(k+1)/G(k+1).
G.f.: 2*x - 2*x/U(0) where U(k) = 1 + 1/(1 - 4*x*(k+1)/U(k+1)).
G.f.: A(x) = x/G(0) where G(k) = 1 - 2*x*(k+1) + x*(k+1)/G(k+1).
G.f.: 2*x - x*W(0) where W(k) = 1 + x*(2*k+1)/( x*(2*k+1) + 1/(1 + x*(2*k+2)/( x*(2*k+2) + 1/W(k+1)))). (End)
a(0) = 0; a(1) = 1; a(n) = 2 * a(n-1) - Sum_{k=1..n-1} binomial(n-1,k) * a(k) * a(n-k). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Aug 28 2020
