COMMENTS
this sequence generates the fifth terms of the following sequences:
a(2)=52=A000110(5), a(3)=43833=A020556(5), a(4)=149670844=A069223(5),
a(5)=1346634725665=A071379(5),a(6)=25571928251231076=A070227(5)
FORMULA
Sequence defined through the following hypergeometric-type generating function, in Maple notation:
exp(-1)*sum(hypergeom([k+1,k+1,k+1,k+1],[1,1,1,1],x)/k!,k=0..infinity)=sum(a(n)*x^n/(n!)^5,n=0..infinity),
which is itself an infinite sum of hypergeometric functions.
MATHEMATICA
nMax = 8; kMax = 50; seq0 = {}; seq = {1}; While[seq != seq0, seq0 = seq; seq = (1/E Sum[HypergeometricPFQ[{k+1, k+1, k+1, k+1}, {1, 1, 1, 1}, x]/k!, {k, 0, kMax}] + O[x]^(nMax+1) // CoefficientList[#, x]&) Range[0, nMax]!^5 // Round; kMax += 10; Print[kMax]]; A157280 = seq (* Jean-François Alcover, Nov 07 2016 *)
