COMMENTS

Total number of blocks of size one in all set partitions of set {1..n}. - Wouter Meeussen, Jul 28, 2003

With offset 1, number of permutations beginning with 12 and avoiding 12-3.

a(n) = number of partitions of {1...n+1} containing exactly one pair of consecutive integers, counted within a block. With offset t-1, number of partitions of {1...N} containing one string of t consecutive integers, where N=n+j, t=2+j, j = 0,1,2,.... - A. O. Munagi (amunagi(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 10 2005

FORMULA

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

a(n) = n*Bell(n-1). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Sep 14 2003

Let A be the upper Hessenberg matrix of order n defined by: A[i,i-1]=-1, A[i,j]=binomial(j-1,i-1), (i<=j), and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n)=(-1)^(n-1)*coeff(charpoly(A,x),x). [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Jul 08 2010]

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 6 because the partitions of {1, 2, 3, 4} containing a pair of consecutive integers are 124/3, 134/2, 14/23, 12/3/4, 1/23/4, 1/2/34.

MAPLE

spec := [S, {B=Set(C), C=Set(Z, 1 <= card), S=Prod(Z, B)}, labeled]: seq(combstruct[count](spec, size=n), n=0..20);

Explanation of above combstruct commands using generating functions, from Mitch Harris, Jul 28 2003:

Z = an atom (each atom used is labeled), gf: Z(x) = x

C = Set(Z, card <= 1) is the set of positive integers; gf: C(x) = e^(Z(x)) - 1 = e^x - 1 (the -1 removes the empty set); [x^n]C = 1 means there is exactly one set with n atoms since each atom is labeled

B = Set(C) the set of (ordered) sets of integers = ordered set partitions; gf: B(x) = e^C(x) = e^(e^x - 1)

S = Prod(Z, B) pairs of an atom (Z) and an ordered set partition = an ordered set partition with an adjoining single atom. The adjoining atom corresponds to choosing a "root" in the partition; gf: S(x) = x B(x) = x*e^(e^x-1)
