COMMENTS

The cited preprint gives an asymptotic estimate for the number of trees as the path length goes to infinity, for t-ary trees, t >= 2. This sequence corresponds to t=2.

FORMULA
|
G.f.: B(w, 1) - 1, where B(w, z) satisfies the functional equation B(w, z) = z B(w, wz)^2 + 1. B(w, z) is the g.f. for the number of binary trees of given path length and number of nodes (see Knuth Vol. 1 Sec. 2.3.4.5); B(1, z) is the g.f. for the Catalan numbers; for B(w, w) see A108643.

EXAMPLE
|
a(1) = 2 because there are two binary trees of path length 1: a root with a left child and a root with a right child.
a(2) = 1 because there is just one binary tree of path length 2: a root with its two children.

MATHEMATICA
|
terms = 44; B[_, _] = 0;
Do[B[w_, z_] = Series[z B[w, w z]^2 + 1, {w, 0, terms-1}, {z, 0, terms-1}] // Normal, {terms-1}];
