a(n) gives the number of partitions P(V(n)) of V(n)=[1,2,3,...,n]. A partition P(V(n)) acts on the components of V(n), i.e. the components of V(n) are partitioned. Therefore a(n) results as the product of the number of partitions P(i) of the component v(i)=i with i=1,...,n. For example, a(3) = 6 because we have 6 list partitions for the list V(n=3)=[1,2,3]: [[1], [1, 1], [2, 1]], [[1], [1, 1], [1, 1, 1]], [[1], [1, 1], [3]], [[1], [2], [2, 1]], [[1], [2], [1, 1, 1]], [[1], [2], [3]]. - Thomas Wieder (thomas.wieder(AT)t-online.de), Sep 29 2007
