COMMENT

Note that the above sequence is dominated by the sequence n^{n-2} (n >0), which enumerates the number of spanning trees in K_{n} : 1, 1, 3, 16, 125, 1296, 16807, 262144, ... This is a consequence of the result in [EKT] which shows that the sequence of independent set numbers of cycle matroid of K_{n} is (strictly) monotone increasing (when n > 3).

FORMULA

exponential generating function=T(x)^{2}/2!, where T(x) is the e.g.f. for the number of spanning trees in K_{n}, i.e. T(x)= sum_{i>= 1}i^{i-2}*x^{i}/i!

E.g.f.: 1/8*LambertW(-x)^2*(2+LambertW(-x))^2. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Jul 08 2003

MATHEMATICA

(* first 20 terms starting with n=1 *) T := Sum[i^(i - 2)*(x^i)/i!, {i, 1, 20}]; T2 := Expand[(T^{2})/2! ]; C2[i_] := Coefficient[T2, x^{i}]*i!; M := MatrixForm[Table[C2[i], {i, 20}]]; M
