%N Coefficients of x^n in the n-th iteration of the g.f. of A120009, so that: a(n) = [x^n] { (x-x^2) o x/(1-n*x) o (1-sqrt(1-4*x))/2 } for n>=1.

%C a(n) is divisible by n for n>=1; a(n)/n = A120016(n).

%C Main diagonal of table (A120013) of iterations of A120009.

%F a(n) = [x^n] x*((1-n+n^2) - n^2*(n+1)*x - n*(1-(n+2)*x)*C(x) )/(1-n+n^2*x)^2, where C(x) = (1-sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*x) is the Catalan function (A000108).

%F a(n) = n^(n-1) - Sum_{k=2..n-2} n^(k-1)*k*(k-1)*(n-k-1)*(2*n-k-2)!/(n-k)!/n!
