%N A007018 a(n)=a(n-1)^2+a(n-1), a(0)=1.
%C A007018 Number of ordered trees having nodes of outdegree 0,1,2 and such that 
               all leaves are at level n. Example: a(2)=6 because, denoting by I 
               a path of length 2 and by Y a Y-shaped tree with 3 edges, we have 
               I, Y, I*I, I*Y, Y*I, Y*Y, where * denotes identification of the roots.

%C A007018 a(n) has at least n different prime factors [Saidak]
%C A007018 Subsequence of square-free numbers (A005117). - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), 
               Nov 15 2004
%C A007018 For prime factors see A007996.
%C A007018 Curtiss shows that if the reciprocal sum of the multiset S = {x_1, x_2, 
               ..., x_n} is 1, then max(S) <= a(n). - Charles R Greathouse IV, Feb

%C A007018 The number of reduced ZBDDs for Boolean functions of n variables in which 
               there is no zero sink. (ZBDDs are "zero-suppressed binary decision 
               diagrams.") For example, a(2)=6 because of the 2-variable functions 
               whose truth tables are 1000, 1010, 1011, 1100, 1110, 1111. - D. E.

%C A007018 Using the methods of Aho and Sloane, Fibonacci Quarterly 11 (1973), 429-437, 
               it is easy to show that a(n) is the integer just a tiny bit below 
               the real number theta^{2^n}-1/2, where theta =~ 1.597910218 is the 
               exponential of the rapidly convergent series ln(3/2)+sum_{n >= 0} 
               ln(1+(2a_n+1)^{-2}). For example, theta^64-1/2 =~ 3263442.0000000383.

%C A007018 a(n+1) = a(n) th oblong (or promic, pronic, or heteromecic) numbers (A002378). 
               a(n+1) = A002378(a(n)) = A002378(a(n-1)) * (A002378(a(n-1)) + 1).
