%N Denominators of the convergents of the continued fraction for Catalan's constant L(2, chi4), where L(s, chi4) is the Dirichlet L-function for the non-principal character modulo 4.

%F chi4(k) = Kronecker(-4, k); chi4(k) is 0, 1, 0, -1 when k reduced modulo 4 is 0, 1, 2, 3, respectively; chi4 is A101455.

%F Series: L(2, chi4) = Sum_{k>=1} chi4(k) k^{-2} = 1 - 1/3^2 + 1/5^2 - 1/7^2 + 1/9^2 - 1/11^2 + 1/13^2 - 1/15^2 + ...

Those prior to index 0 are for initializing the recurrence.
