FORMULA
G.f.: x*(4-3*x)/(1-x)^3.
a(n) = A126890(n,3) for n>2. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Dec 30 2006
a(n) = A028563(n)/2. - Zerinvary Lajos, Feb 12 2007
If we define f(n,i,a) = Sum_{k=0..n-i} binomial(n,k)*Stirling1(n-k,i)*Product_{j=0..k-1} (-a-j), then a(n) = -f(n,n-1,4), for n>=1. - Milan Janjic, Dec 20 2008
a(n) = n + a(n-1) + 3 (with a(0)=0). - Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 07 2010
a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} (k+3). - Gary Detlefs, Aug 10 2010
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 363/490. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 14 2012
a(n) = 4n - floor(n/2) + floor(n^2/2). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jun 15 2013
a(n) = Sum_{i=4..n+3} i. - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jun 28 2013
E.g.f.: (1/2)*x*(x+8)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Jul 13 2017
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 4*log(2)/7 - 319/1470. - Amiram Eldar, Jan 10 2021
a(n) = A000290(n+1) - A000217(n-2). - Leo Tavares, Jan 28 2023
From Amiram Eldar, Feb 12 2024: (Start)
Product_{n>=1} (1 - 1/a(n)) = 15*cos(sqrt(57)*Pi/2)/(8*Pi).
Product_{n>=1} (1 + 1/a(n)) = -63*cos(sqrt(41)*Pi/2)/(8*Pi). (End)
