Formula

G.f.: (theta_3(x/(1 - x))^4 + theta_2(x/(1 - x))^4 - 1)/(24*(1 - x)), where theta_() is the Jacobi theta function.

L.g.f.: Sum_{k>=1} A000593(k)*x^k/(k*(1 - x)^k) = Sum_{n>=1} a(n)*x^n/n.

a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} binomial(n,k)*A000593(k).

Conjecture: a(n) ~ c * 2^n * n, where c = Pi^2/24 = 0.411233516712... - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 26 2019
