COMMENTS

For n >= 0, this appears to be the number of permutations on n+1 elements having the "ascending-to-max" property (see He et al, Definition 2.1). - Nathaniel Johnston, Apr 10 2011

FORMULA

3*sum(k>=0, k^3/binomial(2k, k))=238/81*Pi*sqrt(3) + 32 hence a(4)=32

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} Sum_{j=0..n-k} (j+1)^k*Sum_{i=0..j} (-1)^(n-k+j-i)*C(j, i)*(j-i)^(n-k) (Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Nov 03 2004)

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=sum(k=0, n, sum(j=0, n-k, (j+1)^k*sum(i=0, j, (-1)^(n-k+j-i)*binomial(j, i)*(j-i)^(n-k))))}
