a(n+2) = p(n+1) where p(x) is the unique degree-n polynomial such that p(k) = A000110(k) for k = 0, 1, ..., n. - Michael Somos, Oct 07 2003

Number of complete rhyming schemes.

Whereas the Bell number B(n) (A000110(n)) is the number of terms in the polynomial that expresses the n-th moment of a probability distribution as a function of the first n cumulants, these numbers give the number of terms in the corresponding expansion of the central moment as a function of the first n cumulants. - Michael Hardy (hardy(AT)math.umn.edu), Jan 26 2005

a(n) is the number of permutations on [n] for which the left-to-right maxima coincide with the descents (entries followed by a smaller number). For example, a(4) counts 2143, 3142, 3241, 4123. - David Callan, Jul 20 2005

Also the number of stable partitions of an n-cycle, where a stable partition of a graph is a set partition of the vertex set such that no edge has both ends in the same block. A bijective proof is given in David Callan's article. For example, the a(5) = 11 stable partitions are:

{{1},{2},{3},{4},{5}}

{{1},{2},{3,5},{4}}

{{1},{2,4},{3},{5}}

{{1},{2,5},{3},{4}}

{{1,3},{2},{4},{5}}

{{1,4},{2},{3},{5}}

{{1},{2,4},{3,5}}

{{1,3},{2,4},{5}}

{{1,3},{2,5},{4}}

{{1,4},{2},{3,5}}

{{1,4},{2,5},{3}}

(End)

Also number of partitions of {1, 2, ..., n-1} with singletons. E.g., a(4) = 4: {1|2|3, 12|3, 13|2, 1|23}. Also number of cyclical adjacencies partitions of {1, 2, ..., n-1}. E.g., a(4) = 4: {12|3, 13|2, 1|23, 123}. The two partitions can be mapped by a Kreweras bijection. - Yuchun Ji, Feb 22 2021

Also the k-th central moment of a Poisson random variable with mean 1. a(n) = E[(X-1)^n, X~Poisson(1)]. - Thomas Dybdahl Ahle, Dec 14 2022

Partial sums of A245883. This may be proved using two facts: (i) the number of connected components of a graph is the multiplicity of the root 0 of the chromatic polynomial (thus the chromatic polynomial determines whether a graph is connected) and (ii) a disconnected graph is chromatically equivalent to some graph with an isolated vertex. The first statement is well known. For the latter statement, see p. 65 of [Dong]. - Eric M. Schmidt, Mar 20 2015

A stable partition of a graph is a set partition of the vertices where no edge has both ends in the same block. The chromatic polynomial is given by chi_G(x) = Sum_p (x)k, where the sum is over all stable partitions of G, k is the length (number of blocks) of p, and (x)_k is the falling factorial x(x-1)(x-2)...(x-k+1). - _Gus Wiseman, Nov 24 2018

A stable partition of a graph is a set partition of the vertices where no edge has both ends in the same block. The chromatic symmetric function is given by X_G = Sum_p m(t(p)) where the sum is over all stable partitions of G, t(p) is the integer partition whose parts are the block-sizes of p, and m is augmented monomial symmetric functions (see A321895). - Gus Wiseman, Nov 21 2018

From Peter Bala, Apr 12 2013: (Start)

A coloring of a simple graph G is a choice of color for each graph vertex such that no two vertices sharing the same edge have the same color.

Let E(x) = sum_{n >= 0} x^n/(n!*2^C(n,2)) = 1 + x + x^2/(2*2!) + x^3/(2^3*3!) + .... Read has shown that (E(x) - 1)^k is a generating function for labeled graphs on n nodes that can be colored using exactly k colors. Cases include A213441 (k = 2), A213442 (k = 3) and A224068 (k = 4).

In this triangle, colorings of a labeled graph using k colors that differ only by a permutation of the k colors are treated as the same giving 1/k!*(E(x) - 1)^k as a generating function function for the k-th column. (End)

Number of set partitions of n+2 with at least one singleton and the smallest element in any singleton is exactly n. The maximum number of singletons is therefore 3. Alternatively, number of set partitions of n+2 with at least one singleton and the largest element in any singleton is exactly 3 (or n+2 if n+2 < 3). For example, a(3)=7 counts the following set partitions of [5]: {1245, 3}, {12, 3, 45}, {124, 3, 5}, {15, 24, 3}, {125, 3, 4}, {14, 25, 3}, {12, 3, 4, 5}. - Olivier Gérard, Oct 29 2007

Let V(N)={v(1),v(2),...,v(N)} denote an ordered set of increasing positive integers containing a pair of adjacent elements that differ by at least 2, that is, v(i),v(i+1) with v(i+1)-v(i) > 1. Then for n > 0, a(n) is the number of partitions of V(n+1) into blocks of nonconsecutive integers. - Augustine O. Munagi, Jul 17 2008

A stable partition of a graph is a set partition of the vertices where no edge has both ends in the same block.
