(Of course the rules here are different from the usual counting parentheses problems - compare A000108, A001190, A001699.) See link below for proof. %C A000081 Euler transform is sequence itself with offset -1. %C A000081 Take a string of n x's and insert n-1 ^'s and n-1 pairs of parentheses in all possible legal ways (cf. A003018). Sequence gives number of distinct functions. The single node tree is "x". Making a node f2 a child of f1 represents f1^f2. Since (f1^f2)^f3 is just f1^(f2*f3) we can think of it as f1 raised to both f2 and f3, that is, f1 with f2 and f3 as children. E.g. for n=4 the distinct functions are ((x^x)^x)^x; (x^(x^x))^x; x^((x^x)^x); x^(x^(x^x )). - Edwin Clark (eclark(AT)math.usf.edu) and Russ Cox (rsc(AT)swtch.com) Apr 29, 2003; corrected by Keith Briggs (keith.briggs(AT)bt.com), Nov 14 2005 %C A000081 Triangle A144963: row sums = (1, 2, 4, 9, 20,...), right border = (1, 1, 2, 4, 9,...); and left border = A051573: (1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 8, 16, ...).
