COMMENTS
a(n) = number of partitions of [n] into sets of noncrossing lists. For example, a(4) = 69 counts the 73 partitions of [n] into sets of lists (A000262) except for 13-24, 13-42, 31-24, 31-42 which are crossing. - David Callan, Jul 25 2008

FORMULA
G.f.: A(x) = (1/x)*Series_Reversion( x/[Sum_{n>=0} n!*x^n] ).
G.f. satisfies: A(x) = 1/(1 - x*A(x)/(1 - x*A(x)/(1 - 2*x*A(x)/(1 - 2*x*A(x)/(1 - 3*x*A(x)/(1 - 3*x*A(x)/(1 - 4*x*A(x)/(1 - ...)))))))), a recursive continued fraction.
G.f. satisfies: A(x/F(x)) = F(x) where F(x) = Sum_{n>=0} n!*x^n.
G.f. A(x) satisfies: A = 1 + x*A(x) * (x*A(x)^2)' / (x*A(x))'. - Paul D. Hanna, Apr 01 2018
