FORMULA
|
a_n=B_{n-1}(1) where B_n(x)=1+xB_{n-1}(x)^2 is the generating function of trees of height <= n.
a(n) is asymptotic to c^(2^n) where c=1.2259024435287485386279474959130085213... - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Nov 27 2002
c = b^(1/4) where b is the constant in Bottomley's formula in A004019. a(n) appears very asymptotic to c^(2^n) - Sum(k=1,infinity, A088674[k]/(2*c^(2^n))^(2*k-1)). - Gerald McGarvey (gerald.mcgarvey(AT)comcast.net), Nov 17 2007
