COMMENTS
The Matula-Goebel number of a rooted tree can be defined in the following recursive manner: to the one-vertex tree there corresponds the number 1; to a tree T with root degree 1 there corresponds the t-th prime number, where t is the Matula-Goebel number of the tree obtained from T by deleting the edge emanating from the root; to a tree T with root degree m>=2 there corresponds the product of the Matula-Goebel numbers of the m branches of T.
a(n) = Sum(A212630(n,k), k>=1).
a(n) is odd (see the Brouwer-Csorba-Schrijver reference).

FORMULA
In A212630 one gives the domination polynomial P(n)=P(n,x) of the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number n. We have a(n) = P(n,1).
EXAMPLE
a(3)=5 because the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number 3 is the path tree R - A - B; its dominating subsets are {A}, {R,A}, {R,B}, {A,B}, and {R,A,B}.
