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.

For n=0, there are no rooted trees at all, per A000081.
For n>=1, by omitting the root vertex, a(n) is the number of rooted forests of n-1 vertices in which all leaves are at odd depths down from the forest roots. This includes the empty forest (no vertices at all).
For n>=1, a(n) is the number of rooted hypertrees of weight n-1. Each vertex (leaf or not) at an even depth is a hypervertex. The root is the hypertree root. Each hyperedge is the set of vertices surrounding an odd depth vertex, so that the weight (total hyperedge cardinalities) is the number of edges in the tree (n-1).
A337090 counts trees with all leaves at odd depths. The forests interpretation here is those odd trees assembled to make odd forests so that this sequence is shift-up of the Euler transform of A337090. In turn A337090 is shift-up of the Euler transform of the present sequence (except for treatment of the empty forest) so that it's convenient to calculate them together term by term.

Examples

			For n=5 vertices there are a(5) = 3 rooted trees in which all leaves are at even depths.

Formula

a(n) = (Sum_{k=1..n-1} a(k) * Sum_{d divides n-k} d*A337090(d)) / (n-1), for n>=2.
G.f.: x * Product_{k>=1} 1/(1-x^k)^A337090(k).
G.f.: x * exp(Sum_{k>=1} A337090(x^k)/k).
