FORMULA
|
Representation as a sum of an infinite series: a(n) = exp(2)*Sum_{k = 0..infinity} ((2*k)^n*2^(2*k)/(2*k)!) - sinh(2)*sum_{k = 0..infinity}(k^n*2^k/k!), for n >= 0.
a(n) ~ n^n * cosh(2*exp(r)-2) / (r^n * (exp(n) * sqrt(4*exp(2*r)*r^2/n + 1-n+r))), where r is the root of the equation -2*exp(r)*r*tanh(2-2*exp(r)) = n.
(a(n)/n!)^(1/n) ~ exp(1/LambertW(n/2)) / LambertW(n/2).
(End)
a(n) = (Bell_n(2) + Bell_n(-2))/2, where Bell_n(x) is n-th Bell polynomial. - Vladimir Reshetnikov, Nov 01 2015
