COMMENTS
Number of invertible shuffles of n-2 cards. - Adam C. McDougall (mcdougal(AT)stolaf.edu) and David Molnar (molnar(AT)stolaf.edu), Apr 09 2002
If Y is a 3-subset of an n-set X then, for n>=3, a(n-2) is the number of (n-3)-subsets of X which have neither one element nor two elements in common with Y. - Milan Janjic, Dec 28 2007
Let A be the Hessenberg n X n matrix defined by: A[1,j]=j mod 2, A[i,i]:=1, A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=4, a(n+1)=-coeff(charpoly(A,x),x^(n-3)). - Milan Janjic, Jan 24 2010
Starting with offset 3: (1, 2, 5, 11, 21, ...) = triangle A144257 * [1,2,3,...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Feb 18 2010
(1 + 2x + 5x^2 + 11x^3 + ...) = (1 + 2x + 3x^2 + ...)*(1 + 2x^2 + 3x^3 + ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 26 2010
Starting (1, 2, 5, 11, ...) = binomial transform of [1, 1, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, ...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Aug 25 2010
For n > 1: abs(abs(a(n+2) - a(n+1)) - abs(a(n+1) - a(n))) = n - 1; see also A086283. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Oct 17 2014
For n > 0, a(n) is the number of valid hook configurations of permutations of [n-1] that avoid the patterns 132 and 321. - Colin Defant, Apr 28 2019
For n >= 1, a(n+2) is the number of Grassmannian permutations that avoid a pattern, sigma, where sigma is a pattern of size 4 with exactly one descent. - Jessica A. Tomasko, Nov 15 2022
The number of bigrassmannian permutations in S_n is a(n+2) = binomial(n+1, 3) + 1. - Joshua Swanson, Jan 08 2024

From Paul Barry, Jul 21 2003: (Start)
Diagonal sums of square array A086460 (starting 1, 1, 2, ...).
a(n+2) = 1 + n*(n+1)*(n-1)/6 = Sum_{k=0..n} (0^k + (n-k)*k). (End)

a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3) - a(n-4). - Vincenzo Librandi, Jun 22 2012
a(n) = A000292(n-3) + 1, n > 2. - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Apr 27 2014
E.g.f.: x*(6 - 3*x + x^2)*exp(x)/6. - G. C. Greubel, Oct 30 2019
