COMMENTS
This is the sequence of integers z^n g_n for n=0,2,4,6,... where g_n are the coefficients in the Chebyshev polynomial expansion of the density of states of the body-centered cubic lattice (z=8), g(w) = 1 / (Pi*sqrt(1-w^2)) * Sum_{n>=0} (2-delta_n) g_n T_n(w). Here |w| <= 1 and delta is the Kronecker delta.
The Chebyshev coefficients, g_n, are related to the number of walks on the lattice that return to the origin, W_n, as g_n = Sum_{k=0..n} a_{nk} z^{-k} W_k, where z is the coordination number of the lattice and a_{nk} are the coefficients of Chebyshev polynomials such that T_n(x) = Sum_{k=0..n} a_{nk} x^k.
For the bcc lattice (z=8), the even Chebyshev coefficients can be expressed in closed form in terms of the hypergeometric function pFq, as z^{2N} g_{2N} = (1 + delta_N) * 2^(2N-1) Binomial(2N,N)^3 * 4F3 (-N, -N, -N, -N; 1-2N, 1/2-N, 1/2-N; 1).
