Formula

E.g.f.: (W(x)^2 - 1)/(W(x)^2 + 1), where W(x) = LambertW(-x)/(-x) = exp(x*W(x)) = Sum_{n>=0} (n+1)^(n-1)*x^n/n!.

a(n) ~ 4*exp(2) * n^(n-1) / (1+exp(2))^2. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 23 2016

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} (-1)^k * A264902(n,k). - Alois P. Heinz, Aug 08 2022

Example

E.g.f.: A(x) = x + 2*x^2/2! + 7*x^3/3! + 40*x^4/4! + 341*x^5/5! + 3936*x^6/6! + 57107*x^7/7! + 992384*x^8/8! + 20025385*x^9/9! + 459466240*x^10/10! + 11804134079*x^11/11! + 335571265536*x^12/12! +...
such that A(x) = tanh(x*W(x))
where W(x) = LambertW(-x)/(-x) begins
W(x) = 1 + x + 3*x^2/2! + 16*x^3/3! + 125*x^4/4! + 1296*x^5/5! + 16807*x^6/6! + 262144*x^7/7! + 4782969*x^8/8! + 100000000*x^9/9! +...+ (n+1)^(n-1)*x^n/n! +...
and satisfies W(x) = exp(x*W(x)).
Also, A(x) = (W(x)^2 - 1)/(W(x)^2 + 1), where
W(x)^2 = 1 + 2*x + 8*x^2/2! + 50*x^3/3! + 432*x^4/4! + 4802*x^5/5! + 65536*x^6/6! + 1062882*x^7/7! + 20000000*x^8/8! +...+ 2*(n+2)^(n-1)*x^n/n! +...
