This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A186767 Number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} having no nonincreasing odd cycles. A cycle (b(1), b(2), ...) is said to be increasing if, when written with its smallest element in the first position, it satisfies b(1)

          binomial(n-1, j-1)*`if`(j::even, (j-1)!, 1), j=1..n))

    seq(a(n), n=0..25);  # Alois P. Heinz, Apr 13 2017
  • Mathematica
    a[n_] := a[n] = If[n==0, 1, Sum[a[n-j]*Binomial[n-1, j-1]*If[EvenQ[j], (j-1)!, 1], {j, 1, n}]];
    Table[a[n], {n, 0, 25}] (* Jean-François Alcover, May 18 2017, after Alois P. Heinz *)

Formula

E.g.f.: g(z) = exp(sinh z)/sqrt(1-z^2).
