FORMULA
a(n) = A292932(n) - n*A292932(n-1) = A292932(n) - A292933(n) for n >= 1.
a(n) ~ n! * (4-r) / ((r-1) * (r-3)^(n+1)), where r = -LambertW(-1, -2*exp(-3)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 05 2019
E.g.f.: (1 - x)/(x + 3 - 2*exp(x)). - Andrew Howroyd, Aug 19 2019
MATHEMATICA
nmax = 20; Rest[CoefficientList[Series[(1 - x)/(3 - 2*E^x + x), {x, 0, nmax}], x] * Range[0, nmax]!] (* Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 05 2019 *)
PROG
