Heinz, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..170 %F A157159 Definition of a(n): 1-log(1-x) = product(1+a(n)*(x^n)/n!, n=1..infinity) (formal series and product). %F A157159 Recurrence I. With FP(n,m) the set of partitions of n with m distinct parts (which could be called fermionic partitions (fp)) and the multinomial numbers M1(fp(n,m)) (given as array in A036038 for any partition) for fp(n,m) from FP(n,m): a(n) = (n-1)! - sum(sum(M1(fp)*product(a(k[j]),j=1..m),fp from FP(n,m)), m=2..maxm(n)), with maxm(n):=A003056(n) and the distinct parts k[j], j=1,...,m, of the partition fp of n, n>=3. Inputs a(1)=1, a(2)=1. See the array A008289(n,m) for the cardinality of the set FP(n,m). %F A157159 Recurrence II: a(n) = (n-1)!*((-1)^n + sum(d*(-a(d)/d!)^(n/d),d|n with 1=2, a(1)=1.
