FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} (2*k)! * (k+1)^(k-1) * Stirling2(n,2*k)/k!.
E.g.f.: A(x) = Sum_{k>=0} (k+1)^(k-1) * (exp(x) - 1)^(2*k) / k!.
E.g.f.: A(x) = exp( -LambertW(-(exp(x) - 1)^2) ).
E.g.f.: A(x) = -LambertW(-(exp(x) - 1)^2)/(exp(x) - 1)^2.
a(n) ~ sqrt(1 + exp(1/2)) * 2^n * n^(n-1) / (exp(n-1) * (2*log(1 + exp(1/2)) - 1)^(n - 1/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 27 2023
