Formula

a(n) ~ (73*exp(1)/40320 - 296*exp(2)/315 + 405*exp(3)/16 - 2432*exp(4)/15 + 9625*exp(5)/24 - 468*exp(6) + 553*exp(7)/2 - 80*exp(8) + 9*exp(9)) * n^(n-1). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 19 2017

Maple

S:= (n, k)-> add(binomial(n, i)*k*(k+i)^(i-1)*(n-k-i)^(n-i), i=0..n-k):
a:= n-> S(n, 8)-S(n, 9):
seq(a(n), n=9..23);

Mathematica

S[n_, k_] := Sum[Binomial[n, i]*k*(k+i)^(i-1)*(n-k-i)^(n-i), {i, 0, n-k}];
a[n_] := S[n, 8] - S[n, 9];
Table[a[n], {n, 9, 23}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 24 2019, from Maple *)
