FORMULA

E.g.f. : 1/(3-2*exp(x)).

O.g.f.: Sum_{n>=0} 2^n*n!*x^(n+1)/Product_{k=0..n} (1-k*x). [From Paul D. Hanna, Jul 20 2011]

a(n) = sum(k^n*(2/3)^k, k = 0..infinity)/3.

a(n) = sum(k=0..n, stirling2(n, k)*(2^k)*k! ).

Recurrence: a(n) = 2*Sum_{k=1..n} binomial(n, k)*a(n-k), a(0)=1. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Mar 27 2003

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=polcoeff(sum(m=0, n, 2^m*m!*x^(m+1)/prod(k=1, m, 1-k*x+x*O(x^n))), n)} /* Paul D. Hanna, Jul 20 2011 */
