COMMENTS

The n*n matrix M is a Vandermonde matrix of (x, 2x, 3x, ..., j*x, ..., n*x) scaled by factorials. The first n coefficients of x in det(I - M) are always the same.

FORMULA

Egf: det(I - M) where M_jk = (j*x)^k/k!

MATHEMATICA

A[n_] := D[Det[Table[KroneckerDelta[j, k] - (j*x)^k/k!, {j, 1, n}, {k, 1, n}]], {x, n}]/.x->0
