Comments

Compare g.f. to: x = Sum_{n>=1} n^(n-2)*x^n/(1 + n*x)^n, which generates coefficients in the series reversion of x*exp(-x).

Formula

E.g.f.: x = Sum_{n>=1} a(n)*x^n/(n-1)! * exp(-n*(n+1)/2*x).

a(n) = A195737(n)/n for n>=1.

a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n-1} (-1)^(k-1)*binomial(n-1,k)*binomial(n+1-k,2)^k*a(n-k) for n>=2. - Jonathan Noel, May 05 2017

Example

x = x/(1+x) + 1*x^2/(1+3*x)^2 + 5*x^3/(1+6*x)^3 + 64*x^4/(1+10*x)^4 + 1587*x^5/(1+15*x)^5 +...+ a(n)*x^n/(1+n*(n+1)/2*x)^n +...
The coefficients a(n) also satisfy:
x = x*exp(-x) + 1*x^2/1!*exp(-3*x) + 5*x^3/2!*exp(-6*x) + 64*x^4/3!*exp(-10*x) + 1587*x^5/4!*exp(-15*x) +...+ a(n)*x^n/(n-1)!*exp(-n*(n+1)/2*x) +...
