COMMENT

Number of blocks of size 2 in all set partitions of {1,2,...,n}. Example: a(3)=3 because the set partitions of {1,2,3} are 1|2|3, 1|23, 12|3, 13|2, and 123, containing exactly 3 blocks of size 2. a(n)=Sum(k*A124498(n-1,k), k>=0}. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Nov 06 2006

Number of partitions of {1...n} containing 2 pairs of consecutive integers, where each pair is counted within a block and a string of more that 2 consecutive integers are counted two at a time. E.g. a(4) = 3 because the partitions of {1,2,3,4} with 2 pairs of consecutive integers are 123/4,12/34,1/234. - A. O. Munagi (amunagi(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 10 2005

FORMULA

a(n) = binomial(n-1, 2)*Bell(n-3), the case r = 2 of the general case of r pairs: c(n, r) = binomial(n-1, r)B(n-r-1).

E.g.f.: z^2/2 * e^(e^z-1) - Frank Ruskey (ruskey(AT)cs.uvic.ca), Dec 26 2006

G.f.: exp(-1)*Sum(x^2/(n!*(1-n*x)^3),n=0..infinity). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)Eunet.yu), Feb 05 2008
