FORMULA
a(n) = F(n)^9, F(n)=A000045(n).
G.f.: x*p(9, x)/q(9, x) with p(9, x) := sum_{m=0..8} A056588(8, m)*x^m = 1 - 54*x - 1413*x^2 + 9288*x^3 + 17840*x^4 - 9288*x^5 - 1413*x^6 + 54*x^7 + x^8 and q(9, x) := sum_{m=0..10} A055870(10, m)*x^m = (1 - x - x^2)*(1 + 4*x - x^2)*(1 - 11*x - x^2)*(1 + 29*x - x^2)*(1 - 76*x - x^2) (factorization deduced from Riordan result).
Recursion (cf. Knuth's exercise): sum_{m=0..10} A055870(10, m)*a(n-m) = 0, n >= 10; inputs: a(n), n=0..9. a(n) = 55*a(n-1) + 1870*a(n-2) - 19635*a(n-3) - 85085*a(n-4) + 136136*a(n-5) + 85085*a(n-6) - 19635*a(n-7) - 1870*a(n-8) + 55*a(n-9) + a(n-10).
