Closed form for $a(2^m(2k+1))$
Let $a(n)$ be A329369 (i.e., number of permutations of $\{1,2,\dotsc,m\}$ with excedance set constructed by taking $m-i$ ($0 < i < m$) if $b(i-1) = 1$ where $b(k)b(k-1)\cdots b(1)b(0)$ ($0 \...

Generalized identity with Stirling numbers of the second kind and falling factorials
It is known that Striling numbers of the second kind satisfy the relation
$$
\sum\limits_{k=0}^{n}{n \brace k}(x)_k = x^n.
$$
where $(x)_n$ is the falling factorials such that
$$
(x)_n = x(x-1)(x-2)\...

A question on signed Stirling numbers of the first kind
Let $(x)_0=1$ and $(x)_n=x(x-1)\cdots(x-n+1)$ for $n=1,2,3,\ldots$. The signed Stirling numbers of the first kind, $s(n,k)$ with $n\ge k\ge0$, are defined by
$$(x)_n=\sum_{k=0}^ns(n,k)x^k.$$

Closed form for the family of polynomials
Let $s(n,k)$ be a (signed) Stirling number of the first kind.
Let $R(n,x)$ be the family of polynomials such that
$$
R(2n+1,x) = xR(n,x), \\
R(2n,x) = x(R(n,x+1) - R(n, x)), \\
R(0, x) = x
$$

Sum with Stirling numbers of the second kind
Let $wt(n)$ be A000120, number of $1$'s in binary expansion of $n$ (or the binary weight of $n$)
and
$$n=2^{t_1}(1+2^{t_2+1}(1+\dots(1+2^{t_{wt(n)}+1}))\dots)$$
Then we have an integer sequence given ...
