%N Number of permutations of [n] with at least one strong fixed point (a permutation p of {1,2,...,n} is said to have j as a strong fixed point if p(k) < j for k < j and p(k) > j for k > j).

%C a(n) is also the number of permutation graphs with domination number one. See Definition 2.1, Lemma 2.3, and page 16 in the paper provided in the link by Theresa Baren, et al. - _Daniel A. McGinnis_, Oct 16 2018
