FORMULA
E.g.f.: exp(exp(2*x)-1+x). - Vladeta Jovovic, Aug 04 2007
a(n) = e^(-1)* 2^n * Sum_{k>=0} (k + 1/2)^n / k!. This is a Dobinski-type formula. - Karol A. Penson and Olivier Gérard, Oct 22 2007
G.f.: 1/Q(0), where Q(k)= 1 - (2*k+3)*x - 4*(k+1)*x^2/Q(k+1); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, May 03 2013
G.f.: 1/Q(0), where Q(k)= 1 - x - 2*x/(1 - 2*x*(2*k+1)/(1 - x - 2*x/(1 - 2*x*(2*k+2)/Q(k+1)))); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, May 13 2013
a(0) = 1; a(n) = a(n-1) + Sum_{k=1..n} binomial(n-1,k-1) * 2^k * a(n-k). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jun 21 2022
From Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 22 2022: (Start)
a(n) ~ Bell(n) * (2 + LambertW(n)/n)^n.
a(n) ~ Bell(n) * 2^n * sqrt(n) * log(n)^(-1/2 + 1/(2*log(n)) - 1/(2*log(n)^2)) * exp(log(log(n))^2/(4*log(n)^2)). (End)
a(n) ~ 2^n * n^(n + 1/2) * exp(n/LambertW(n) - n - 1) / (sqrt(1 + LambertW(n)) * LambertW(n)^(n + 1/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 27 2022
