FORMULA
|
For n >= 2, A006351(n) = 2*A000311(n) = A005640(n)/2^n.
E.g.f. is reversion of 2*ln(1+x)-x.
Also exponential transform of A000311, define b by 1+sum b_n x^n / n! = exp ( 1 + sum a_n x^n /n!).

MAPLE

read transforms; t1 := 2*ln(1+x)-x; t2 := series(t1, x, 10); t3 := seriestoseries(t2, 'revogf'); t4 := SERIESTOLISTMULT(%);
# N denotes all series-parallel networks, S = series networks, P = parallel networks; spec := [ N, {N=Union(Z, S, P), S=Set(Union(Z, P), card>=2), P=Set(Union(Z, S), card>=2)}, labeled ]: A006351 := n->combstruct[count](spec, size=n);
