Comments

In general, if m >= 1, b <> 0 and e.g.f. = exp(m*exp(b*x) + r*x + s) then a(n) ~ b^n * n^(n + r/b) * exp(n/LambertW(n/m) - n + s) / (m^(r/b) * sqrt(1 + LambertW(n/m)) * LambertW(n/m)^(n + r/b)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 28 2022

Formula

A004211(n) = -1 + 2*sum(k=0..n, C(n,k)*a(k)). - Peter Luschny, Nov 01 2012

G.f.: 1/2 + 1/2/Q(0), where Q(k)= 1 - 2*x*k - 2*x^2*(k+1)/Q(k+1); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, May 06 2013

a(n) ~ 2^(n - 3/2) * n^(n - 1/2) * exp(n/LambertW(2*n) - n - 1/2) / (sqrt(1 + LambertW(2*n)) * LambertW(2*n)^(n - 1/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 26 2022
