%N a(n) is the number of partial bijections (or subpermutations) of an n-element set without fixed points (also called partial derangements).

%C a(n) is also the number of matchings on the n-crown graph. - _Eric W. Weisstein_, Jul 11 2011

%F E.g.f. for number of partial bijections of an n-element set with exactly k fixed points is (x^k/k!)*exp(x^2/(1-x))/(1-x). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Nov 09 2008

%F a(n) ~ exp(2*sqrt(n)-n-3/2)*n^(n+1/4)/sqrt(2) * (1+79/(48*sqrt(n))). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Aug 11 2013

%e a(3) = 18 because there are exactly 18 partial derangements (on a 3-element set), namely: the empty map, (1)->(2), (1)->(3), (2)->(1), (2)->(3), (3)->(1), (3)->(2), (1,2)->(2,1), (1,2)->(2,3), (1,2)->(3,1), (1,3)->(2,1), (1,3)->(3,1), (1,3)->(3,2), (2,3)->(1,2), (2,3)->(3,1), (2,3)->(3,2), (1,2,3)->(2,3,1), (1,2,3)->(3,1,2) - the mappings are coordinate-wise.
