FORMULA
a(n) ~ GAMMA(1/3) * 2^(2*n+1/3) * 3^(2*n+7/6) * n^(n+1/6) / (exp(n+Pi^2/72) * Pi^(2*n+11/6)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 06 2014
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 11*x^2 + 105*x^3 + 1390*x^4 + 23520*x^5 + 484247*x^6 +...
such that, by definition,
A(x) = 1 + ((1+x)^2-1) + ((1+x)^2-1)*((1+x)^5-1) + ((1+x)^2-1)*((1+x)^5-1)*((1+x)^8-1) + ((1+x)^2-1)*((1+x)^5-1)*((1+x)^8-1)*((1+x)^11-1) +...
