FORMULA
E.g.f.: A(x) = (1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x*exp(x))) / (2*x).
a(n) = 1 + n*Sum_{k=0..n-1} C(n-1,k)*a(k)*a(n-1-k) for n>=0.
a(n) ~ sqrt(2)*sqrt(1+LambertW(1/4))*n^(n-1)/(4*exp(n)*LambertW(1/4)^(n+1)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 19 2013
a(n) = n!*sum(k=0..n, (k+1)^(n-k-1)*binomial(2*k,k)/(n-k)!). - Vladimir Kruchinin, Sep 01 2014
EXAMPLE
E.g.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 9*x^2/2! + 79*x^3/3! + 1065*x^4/4! +...
Related expansion:
A(x)^2 = 1 + 4*x + 26*x^2/2! + 266*x^3/3! + 3880*x^4/4! + 74322*x^5/5! +...
Illustrate the recurrence:
a(2) = 1 + 2*(1*1*2 + 1*2*1) = 1 + 2*4 = 9;
a(3) = 1 + 3*(1*1*9 + 2*2*2 + 1*9*1) = 1 + 3*26 = 79;
a(4) = 1 + 4*(1*1*79 + 3*2*9 + 3*9*2 + 1*79*1) = 1 + 4*266 = 1065;
a(5) = 1 + 5*(1*1*1065 + 4*2*79 + 6*9*9 + 4*79*2 + 1*1065*1) = 1 + 5*3880 = 19401.
