FORMULA

a(n) = coefficient of y^3 in sum_0^n sigma_{n, k}(n - k)!(y - 1)^k on y where the sigma_{n, k} have generating function sigma(t, u)=(1 - 2t^2(u^2) - 2t^2(1 + t)u^3 + 3t^4(u^4))(1 - tu)^( - 1)(1 - (1 + 2t)u - tu^2 + t^3(u^3))^( - 1)

MAPLE

seq(f(n, 3), n=3..30); #code for f(n, k) is given in A000440
