%N A006298 Number of genus 2 rooted maps with 1 face with n vertices.
%C A006298 Call C(p,[alpha],g) the number of partitions of the cyclically ordered set [p], of cyclic type [alpha], and of genus g (genus g Faa di Bruno coefficients of type [alpha]). The number C(2n,[2^n],g) of genus g partitions of the set [2n] into n blocks of length 2 is given by the coefficient of u^(2g) in the power series expansion of ((2*k)!/((k+1)!*(k-2g)!))*((u/2)/tanh(u/2))^(k+1) about the point u=0 [Harer-Zagier]. The given sequence a(n) is C(2n,[2^n],2), or, equivalently, it is the number of genus 2 partitions of the set [2n] into n parts with no singletons; it vanishes for n < 4 and a(4)=21. - _Robert Coquereaux_, Mar 07 2024
