FORMULA
a(n) = (-1)*A021009(n, 5), n >= 5.
a(n) = ((n!/5!)^2)/(n-5)!, n >= 5.
If we define f(n,i,x) = Sum_{k=i..n} Sum_{j=i..k} (binomial(k,j)* Stirling1(n,k) * Stirling2(j,i)*x^(k-j) then a(n) = (-1)^(n-1)*f(n,5,-6), (n>=5). - Milan Janjic, Mar 01 2009
From Amiram Eldar, May 02 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=5} 1/a(n) = 375*(gamma - Ei(1)) + 150*e + 175/2, where e = A001113, gamma = A001620, and Ei(1) = A091725.
Sum_{n>=5} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 5225*(gamma - Ei(-1)) - 3100/e - 18125/6, where Ei(-1) = -A099285. (End)
