COMMENTS

Number of standard tableaux of shape (n-3,2,2) (n>=5). - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), May 13 2004

Number of short bushes with n+1 edges and 3 branch nodes (i.e. nodes with outdegree at least 2). A short bush is an ordered tree with no nodes of outdegree 1. Example: a(5)=5 because the only short bushes with 6 edges and 3 branch nodes are the five full binary trees with 6 edges. Column 3 of A108263. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), May 29 2005
