COMMENT

E.g.f. A(x)=y satisfies 0=(2x^3+2x^2)y''+(-3x^3+4x-1)y'+(x^3-x^2-2x+3)y. - Michael Somos Mar 15 2004

Number of ways to use the elements of {1,..,k}, 0<=k<=2n, once each to form a sequence of n (possibly empty) sets, each having at most 2 elements. - Bob Proctor, Apr 18 2005

FORMULA

a(n)n=a(n-1)(2n^3-n^2+n+1)+a(n-2)(-3n^3+4n^2+2n-3)+a(n-3)(n^3-2n^2-n+2).

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=local(A); if(n<0, 0, A=(1+x+x^2/2)^n; sum(k=0, 2*n, k!*polcoeff(A, k)))

CROSSREFS

a(n) = Sum[C(n, k)*A105749(k), 0<=k<=n]
