Old name: Number of homeomorphically irreducible general graphs on 1 labeled node and with n edges.

A homeomorphically irreducible general graph is a graph with multiple edges and loops and without nodes of degree 2.

This sequence is also produced by Wolfram's Rule 253 of Elementary Cellular Automaton as a triangle read by rows giving successive states initiated with a single ON (black) cell. See the Wolfram, Weisstein and Index links below. - Robert Price, Jan 31 2016

Formula

G.f.: (x^2 - x + 1)/(1 - x). a(0)=1, a(1)=0; a(n)=1, n > 1.

E.g.f. for homeomorphically irreducible general graphs with n nodes and k edges is (1 + x*y)^(- 1/2)*exp(- x*y/2 + x^2*y^2/4)*Sum_{k >= 0} 1/(1 - x)^binomial(k + 1, 2)*exp(- x^2*y*k^2/(2*(1 + x*y)) - x^2*y*k/2)*y^k/k!.

E.g.f.: e^x - x. - Paul Barry, May 06 2007
