COMMENTS
The poly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind hat c_n^k can be expressed in terms of the (unsigned) Stirling numbers of the first kind: hat c_n^(k) = (-1)^n*sum(abs(stirling1(n,m))/(m+1)^k, m=0..n).

FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} Stirling1(n,k)*(-1)^k*(k+1)^3.
E.g.f.: (1 - 7 * log(1 + x) + 6 * log(1 + x)^2 - log(1 + x)^3) / (1 + x). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Aug 10 2021
