COMMENTS

Coefficients T_2(n,k) form the array A082171. These automata have no nontrivial automorphisms (by states).

Also equals the left-most column of triangular matrix M=A103236, which satisfies: M^2 + 2*M = SHIFTUP(M) (i.e. each column of M shifts up 1 row). - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Jan 29 2005

FORMULA

a(n) := d_2(n)/(n-1)! where d_2(n) := T_2(n, 1)-sum(binomial(n-1, j-1)*T_2(n-j, j+1)*d_2(j), j=1..n-1); and T_2(0, k) := 1, T_2(n, k) := sum(binomial(n, i)*(-1)^(n-i-1)*((i+k+1)^2-1)^(n-i)*T_2(i, k), i=0..n-1), n>0.

G.f.: 1 = Sum_{n>=0} a(n+1)*x^n/(1-2*x)^n*Product_{k=0..n} (1-(3+k)*x). Thus: 1 = 1*(1-3x) + 3*x/(1-2x)*(1-3x)(1-4x) + 15*x^2/(1-2x)^2*(1-3x)(1-4x)(1-5x) + 114*x^3/(1-2x)^3*(1-3x)(1-4x)(1-5x)(1-6x) + ... - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Jan 29 2005
