%N a(n) is the number of permutations on [n] with no strong fixed points or small descents.
%C A small descent in a permutation p is a position i such that p(i)-p(i+1)=1.
%C A strong fixed point is a fixed point (or splitter) p(k)=k such that p(i) < k for i < k and p(j) > k for j > k.

%F For n > 3, a(n) = b(n) - b(n-1) - Sum{i=4..n}(a(i-1)*b(n-i)) where b(n) = A000255(n-1) and b(0) = 1.
%e For n = 4, the a(4) = 6 permutations on [4] with no strong fixed points or small descents: {(2,3,4,1),(3,4,1,2),(4,1,2,3),(3,1,4,2),(2,4,1,3),(4,2,3,1)}.
