FORMULA

GF: exp(Sum((-1)^(j-1)/j*(2*z^j)/(1-2*z^j), j=1..infinity)):

EXAMPLE

a(2)=5 because the sets are {a,b}, {aa}, {ab}, {ba}, {bb};

a(3)=16 because the sets are {a,aa}, {a,ab}, {a,ba}, {a,bb}, {b,aa}, {b,ab}, {b,ba}, {b,bb}, {aaa}, {aab}, {aba}, {abb}, {baa}, {bab}, {bba}, {bbb}

MAPLE

series(exp(add((-1)^(j-1)/j*(2*z^j)/(1-2*z^j), j=1..40)), z, 40);

CROSSREFS

Cf. A034899.
