Comments

In general, if e.g.f. = exp(Sum_{k>=1} m*x^k) = exp(m*x/(1-x)) and m>0, then a(n) ~ n! * m^(1/4) * exp(2*sqrt(m*n) - m/2) / (2 * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/4)).

Formula

E.g.f.: exp(3*x/(1-x)).

a(n) ~ 3^(1/4) * exp(2*sqrt(3*n) - 3/2) * n! / (2*sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/4)).

a(n) = (2*n+1)*a(n-1) - (n-2)*(n-1)*a(n-2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 04 2016

From G. C. Greubel, Feb 24 2021: (Start)

a(n) = A253286(n+3, 3).

a(n) = 3*(n-1)!*LaguerreL(n-1, 1, -3) with a(0) = 1. (End)
