Comments

R is early confluent iff (xRy and xRz) implies (yRz or zRy) for all x, y, z.

Programs

Maple

t:= proc(k) option remember; `if`(k<0, 0,
      unapply(exp(add(x^m/m! *t(k-m)(x), m=1..k)), x))
    end:
egf:= t(8)(x)-t(7)(x):
a:= n-> n!* coeff(series(egf, x, n+1), x, n):
seq(a(n), n=8..22);

Mathematica

m = 8; t[k_] := t[k] = If[k<0, 0, Function[x, Exp[Sum[x^m/m!*t[k-m][x], {m, 1, k}]]]] ; egf = t[m][x]-t[m-1][x]; a[n_] := n!*Coefficient[Series[egf, {x, 0, n+1}], x, n]; Table[a[n], {n, m, 22}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 14 2014, after Maple *)

Formula

E.g.f.: t_8(x)-t_7(x), with t_k(x) = exp (Sum_{m=1..k} x^m/m! * t_{k-m}(x)) if k>=0 and t_k(x) = 0 else.

a(n) = A210916(n) - A210915(n).
