%N a(n) is the number of time-dependent assembly trees satisfying the connected gluing rule for a cycle on n vertices.

%C A time-dependent assembly tree for a connected graph G=(V, E) on n vertices is a rooted tree, each node of which is label a subset U of V and a nonnegative integer i such that:

%C 1) each internal node has at least two children,

%C 2) there are leaves labeled (v, 0) for each vertex v in V,

%C 3) the label on the root is (V, m) for 1 <= m <= n-1,

%C 4) for each node (U, i) with i < m, U is the union of the {u} for the children (u, 0) of (U, i),

%C 5) if (U, i) and (U', i') are adjacent nodes with U a subset of U', then i < i',

%C 6) for each 0 <= i <= m, there exists a node (U, i) with U a subset of V.

%C A time-dependent assembly tree is said to satisfy the connected gluing rule if each internal vertex v of G, the graph induced by the vertices in the labels is connected.

%C Essentially the same as A053525. - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 20 2018
