COMMENTS

a(n)=number of permutations on [n] for which no proper initial interval of [n] is mapped to an interval. - David Callan (callan(AT)stat.wisc.edu), Nov 11 2003

FORMULA

a(n) = -n!*a(1)-(n-1)!*a(2)-...-2!*a(n-1), with a(n)=1.

G.f.: 1/Sum_{k>=0} (k+1)!*x^k. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), May 04 2003

EXAMPLE

a(4)= -8 = -24*1-6*(-2)-2*(-2). (a(1),a(2),...,a(n))(*)(1,2,3!,...,n!)=(1,0,0,...,0), where (*) denotes convolution.
