FORMULA
E.g.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) exp(A(x) - A(x)^2) = LambertW(-x)/(-x).
(2) A(x) = -LambertW(-x) + A(x)^2.
(3) A(x) = C( -LambertW(-x) ), where C(x) = x + C(x)^2 is a g.f. of the Catalan numbers.
a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} A000108(k-1) * n^(n-k) * k! * binomial(n-1,k-1), where A000108 is the Catalan numbers.
a(n) ~ 2^(2*n - 1/2) * n^(n-1) / (sqrt(3) * exp(3*n/4)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 10 2016
