Comments

This sequence is of the form (k^n - 1)/(k - 1) with k = 2*n + 1. See crossrefs in A218722 for other sequences of the same form.

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..18.

Formula

a(n) = Sum_{i=0..n-1} A005408(n)^i.

a(n) = n! * [x^n] exp(x)*(exp(2*n*x) - 1)/(2*n).

a(n) = n! * [x^n] exp((n+1)*x)*sinh(n*x)/n.

Limit_{n->oo} a(n+1)/(n*a(n)) = 2*e.

Limit_{n->oo} (a(n+1)/a(n) - a(n)/a(n-1)) = 2*e.
