Perturbation expansion in quantum field theory: spinor case in 4 spacetime dimensions.

a(n)*2^(-n) is the coefficient of the x^(2*n-1) term in the series reversal of the asymptotic expansion of 2*DawsonF(x) = sqrt(Pi)*exp(-x^2)*erfi(x) for x -> inf. - Vladimir Reshetnikov, Apr 23 2016

The September 2018 talk by Noam Zeilberger (see link to video) connects three topics (planar maps, Tamari lattices, lambda calculus) and eight sequences: A000168, A000260, A000309, A000698, A000699, A002005, A062980, A267827. - N. J. A. Sloane, Sep 17 2018

A set partition is topologically connected if the graph whose vertices are the blocks and whose edges are crossing pairs of blocks is connected, where two blocks cross each other if they are of the form {{...x...y...},{...z...t...}} for some x < z < y < t or z < x < t < y. Then a(n) is the number of topologically connected 2-uniform set partitions of {1...2n}. See my links for examples. - Gus Wiseman, Feb 23 2019

From Julien Courtiel, Oct 09 2024: (Start)

a(n) is the number of rooted bridgeless combinatorial maps with n edges (genus is not fixed). A map is bridgeless if it has no edge whose removal disconnects the graph. For example, for n=2, there are 4 bridgeless maps with 2 edges: 2 planar maps with 1 vertex (either two consecutive loops, or two nested loops), 1 toric map with 1 vertex, and 1 planar map with 2 vertices connected by a double edge.

Also, a(n) is the number of trees with n edges equipped with a binary tubing. A tube is a connected subgraph. A binary tubing of a tree is a nested set collection S of tubes such that 1. S contains the tube of all vertices 2. Every tube of S is either reduced to one vertex, or it can be can partitioned by 2 tubes of S.

Two edges {a,b}, {c,d} are crossing if a < c < b < d or c < a < d < b, and nesting if a < c < d < b or c < a < b < d. A graph with positive integer vertices is topologically connected if the graph whose vertices are the edges and whose edges are crossing pairs of edges is connected.

A graph is topologically connected if the graph whose vertices are the edges and whose edges are crossing pairs of edges is connected, where two edges cross each other if they are of the form {{x,y},{z,t}} with x < z < y < t or z < x < t < y.

Covering means there are no isolated vertices.

Two edges {a,b}, {c,d} are weakly nesting if a <= c < d <= b or c <= a < b <= d. A graph has its weakly nesting edges connected if the graph whose vertices are the edges and whose edges are weakly nesting pairs of edges is connected.

Two edges {a,b}, {c,d} are crossing if a < c < b < d or c < a < d < b, and nesting if a < c < d < b or c < a < b < d.

Appears to be essentially the same as A003946.

If all subsets are allowed instead of just pairs (chords), we get A324173. The rightmost column is A000108 (see Riordan). - Gus Wiseman, Feb 27 2019
