For n >= 3, a(n-1) is also the number of ways that a 3-cycle in the symmetric group S_n can be written as a product of 2 long cycles (of length n). - Ahmed Fares (ahmedfares(AT)my-deja.com), Aug 14 2001
a(n) is the number of Hamiltonian circuit masks for an n X n adjacency matrix of an undirected graph. - Chad Brewbaker, Jan 31 2003
a(n-1) is the number of necklaces one can make with n distinct beads: n! bead permutations, divide by two to represent flipping the necklace over, divide by n to represent rotating the necklace. Related to Stirling numbers of the first kind, Stirling cycles. - Chad Brewbaker, Jan 31 2003
Number of increasing runs in all permutations of [n-1] (n>=2). Example: a(4)=12 because we have 12 increasing runs in all the permutations of [3] (shown in parentheses): (123), (13)(2), (3)(12), (2)(13), (23)(1), (3)(2)(1). - Emeric Deutsch, Aug 28 2004
Minimum permanent over all n X n (0,1)-matrices with exactly n/2 zeros. - Simone Severini, Oct 15 2004
The number of permutations of 1..n that have 2 following 1 for n >= 1 is 0, 1, 3, 12, 60, 360, 2520, 20160, ... . - Jon Perry, Sep 20 2008

For n>1: a(n) = A173333(n,2). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Feb 19 2010
Starting (1, 3, 12, 60, ...) = eigensequence of triangle A002260, (a triangle with k terms of (1,2,3,...) in each row given k=1,2,3,...). Example: a(6) = 360, generated from (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) dot (1, 1, 3, 12, 60) = (1 + 2 + 9 + 48 + 300). - Gary W. Adamson, Aug 02 2010
For n>=2: a(n) is the number of connected 2-regular labeled graphs on (n+1) nodes (Cf. A001205). - Geoffrey Critzer, Feb 16 2011.

Also [1, 1] together with the row sums of triangle A162608. - Omar E. Pol, Mar 09 2012
a(n-1) is, for n>=2, also the number of necklaces with n beads (only C_n symmetry, no turnover) with n-1 distinct colors and signature c[.]^2 c[.]^(n-2). This means that two beads have the same color, and for n=2 the second factor is omitted. Say, cyclic(c[1]c[1]c[2]c[3]..c[n-1]), in short 1123...(n-1), taken cyclically. E.g., n=2: 11,  n=3: 112, n=4: 1123, 1132, 1213,  n=5: 11234, 11243, 11324, 11342, 11423, 11432, 12134, 12143, 13124, 13142, 14123, 14132. See the next-to-last entry in line n>=2 of the representative necklace partition array A212359. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jun 26 2012
For m >= 3, a(m-1) is the number of distinct Hamiltonian circuits in a complete simple graph with m vertices. See also A001286. - Stanislav Sykora, May 10 2014
In factorial base (A007623) these numbers have a simple pattern: 1, 1, 1, 11, 200, 2200, 30000, 330000, 4000000, 44000000, 500000000, 5500000000, 60000000000, 660000000000, 7000000000000, 77000000000000, 800000000000000, 8800000000000000, 90000000000000000, 990000000000000000, etc. See also the formula based on this observation, given below. - Antti Karttunen, Dec 19 2015
Also (by definition) the independence number of the n-transposition graph. - Eric W. Weisstein, May 21 2017
Number of permutations of n letters containing an even number of even cycles. - Michael Somos, Jul 11 2018
Equivalent to Brewbaker's and Sykora's comments, a(n - 1) is the number of undirected cycles covering n labeled vertices, hence the logarithmic transform of A002135. - Gus Wiseman, Oct 20 2018
For n >= 2 and a set of n distinct leaf labels, a(n) is the number of binary, rooted, leaf-labeled tree topologies that have a caterpillar shape (column k=1 of A306364). - Noah A Rosenberg, Feb 11 2019

a(n) is the number of lattices of the form [s,w] in the weak order on S_n, for a fixed simple reflection s. - Bridget Tenner, Jan 16 2020
For n > 3, a(n) = p_1^e_1*...*p_m^e_m, where p_1 = 2 and e_m = 1. There exists p_1^x where x <= e_1 such that p_1^x*p_m^e_m is a primitive Zumkeller number (A180332) and p_1^e_1*p_m^e_m is a Zumkeller number (A083207). Therefore, for n > 3, a(n) = p_1^e_1*p_m^e_m*r, where r is relatively prime to p_1*p_m, is also a Zumkeller number. - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Mar 11 2020
For n>1, a(n) is the number of permutations of [n] that have 1 and 2 as cycle-mates, that is, 1 and 2 are contained in the same cycle of a cyclic representation of permutations of [n]. For example, a(4) counts the 12 permutations with 1 and 2 as cycle-mates, namely, (1 2 3 4), (1 2 4 3), (1 3 2 4), (1 3 4 2), (1 4 2 3), (1 4 3 2), (1 2 3) (4), (1 3 2) (4), (1 2 4 )(3), (1 4 2)(3), (1 2)(3 4), and (1 2)(3)(4). Since a(n+2)=row sums of A162608, our result readily follows. - Dennis P. Walsh, May 28 2020

a(n,1) = A001715(n+2). a(n,m)=: S1p(4; n,m), a member of a sequence of lower triangular Jabotinsky matrices with nonnegative entries including S1p(1; n,m)= A008275 (unsigned Stirling first kind), S1p(2; n,m)= A008297(n,m) (unsigned Lah numbers), S1p(3; n,m)= A046089(n,m).
The signed lower triangular matrix (-1)^(n-m)*a(n,m) is inverse to matrix A035469(n,m) := S2(4; n,m). The monic row polynomials E(n,x) := sum(a(n,m)*x^m,m=1..n), E(0,x) := 1 are exponential convolution polynomials (see A039692 for the definition and a Knuth reference).
a(n,m) enumerates unordered increasing n-vertex m-forests composed of m unary trees (out-degree r from {0,1}) whose vertices of depth (distance from the root) j>=1 come in j+3 colors. The k roots (j=0) each come in one (or no) color. - Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 12 2007

(A bijection from endofunctions to "doubly" rooted trees where the order of designating the roots is important) Miklos Bona, A Walk Through Combinatorics, World Scientific Publishing, 2006, page 216. - Geoffrey Critzer, May 17 2012.

Each partition of n, ordered as in Abramowitz-Stegun (A-St order; for the reference see A134278), is mapped to a nonnegative integer a(n,k) =: M31(3;n,k) with the k-th partition of n in A-St order.
The sequence of row lengths is A000041 (partition numbers) [1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 15, 22, 30, 42,...].
Third member (K=3) in the family M31(K) of partition number arrays.
If M31(3;n,k) is summed over those k with fixed number of parts m one obtains the unsigned triangle |S1(3)|:= A046089.
