FORMULA
a(n) ~ (1+r)^(2*n+3/2)/r^(4*n+7/2)/(4*Pi^(3/2)*n^(3/2))*sqrt((1-r)/(2+r)), where r is positive real root of the equation (1-r)^3*(1+r)=r^4, r = 0.58252220781047... - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 04 2012

The expansions exp( Sum_{n >= 1} a(n)*x^n/n ) = 1 + 3*x + 20*x^2 + 184*x^3 + 2060*x^4 + 26246*x^5 + ... and exp( Sum_{n >= 1} a(n-1)*x^n/n ) = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 12*x^3 + 112*x^4 + 1296*x^5 + ... appear to have integer coefficients. Cf. A005258 and A005259. - Peter Bala, Jan 14 2016
