COMMENTS
a(1) is 5 and gives the row number in the table of 0-origin permutations of order 3 in which the first 3 items are reversed. Row 5 of this table is 2 1 0. a(2) is 14 and gives the row number in the table of 0-origin permutations of order 4 in which the first three items are reversed. Row 14 of this table is 2 1 0 3.... a(6) is 10800 and gives the row number in the table of 0-origin permutations of order 8 in which the first 3 items are reversed. Row 10800 of this table is 2 1 0 3 4 5 6 7. Et cetera. - Eugene McDonnell (eemcd(AT)mac.com), Dec 03 2004
In factorial base representation (A007623) the terms of this sequence are written as: 10, 21, 210, 2100, 21000, 210000, ... From a(1) = 5 = "21" onward each term begins always with "21", which is then followed by n-1 zeros. - Antti Karttunen, Sep 24 2016

FORMULA
a(n) = (3+2*n)*n!.
E.g.f.: -(-x+x^2-2)/(-1+x)^2.
Recurrence: a(0)=2, a(1)=5, (-7*n-5-2*n^2)*a(n)+(3+2*n)*a(n+1)=0 for n>=1.
a(n) = A129326(n), n>1. - R. J. Mathar, Jun 14 2008
a(n) = (n+1)*a(n-1) - 2*A001048(n-1). - Gary Detlefs, Dec 16 2009
a(0) = 2; for n >= 1, a(n) = 2*(n+1)! + n! - Antti Karttunen, Sep 24 2016
From Amiram Eldar, Feb 17 2024: (Start)
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 1/6 + e/2 - erfi(1)*sqrt(Pi)/4, where erfi is the imaginary error function.
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = 1/6 - 1/(2*e) + erf(1)*sqrt(Pi)/4, where erf is the error function. (End)
