FORMULA

G.f.: x^4(24-36x-280x^2+652x^3-168x^4-288x^5)/((1-x)^4(1-2x)^3(1-3x)^2(1-4x)). - Michael Somos, Oct 13, 2002

a(n) = sum((-1)^(n+k+2)*binomial(2*n+1,k)*stirling1(2*n-k-3,n-k-3), k=0..n-4) [From Johannes W. Meijer (meijgia(AT)hotmail.com), Oct 16 2009].

MAPLE

G:=x^4*(24-36*x-280*x^2+652*x^3-168*x^4-288*x^5)/((1-x)^4*(1-2*x)^3*(1-3*x)^2*(1-4*x)): Gser:=series(G, x=0, 27): seq(coeff(Gser, x^n), n=3..25);
