%F a(n) = A060279(n)/(2*n). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Feb 08 2005

%F Bisection of A058014. The expansion 1/sqrt(1+x^2)*arcsinh(x) = x - 4*x^3/3! + 64*x^5/5! - ... (see A002454) has series reversion x + 4*x^3/3! + 96*x^5/5! + 5888*x^7/7! + .... The coefficients appear to be the terms of this sequence. As an x-adic limit this e.g.f. equals lim_{n -> infinity} sinh(f(n,x)), where f(0,x) = x and f(n,x) = x*cosh(f(n-1,x)) for n >= 1. See the example section below. - _Peter Bala_, Apr 24 2012

%F a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} binomial(n,k) * k! * (n-2)! [z^{n-2}] [u^k] exp(u(exp(z)+exp(-z)-2)/2)). - _Marko Riedel_, Jun 16 2016

%F From _Alexander Burstein_, Oct 13 2021: (Start)

%F a(n) = (1/2) * Sum_{k=0..n-1} binomial(2*n,k) * (n-k)^(2*n-2) for n >= 2.

%F a(n) = (2*n-1)!*[x^(2*n-1)] sinh(REVERT(x/cosh(x))), see A036778. (End)

%F a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} A156289(n-1, k)*(2*n)!/(2*n-k)!. - _Peter Luschny_, May 07 2022

%e From _Peter Bala_, Apr 24 2012: (Start)

%e Let G(x) = 1 + x^2/2! + 13*x^4/4! + 541*x^6/6! + ... be the e.g.f. for A143601. Then sinh(x*G(x)) = x + 4*x^3/3! + 96*x^5/5! + 5888*x^7/7! + ....

%e Conjectural e.g.f. as an x-adic limit:

%e sinh(x) = x + ...; sinh(x*cosh(x)) = x + 4*x^3/3! + ...;

%e sinh(x*cosh(x*cosh(x))) = x + 4*x^3/3! + 96*x^5/5! + ...;

%e sinh(x*cosh(x*cosh(x*cosh(x)))) = x + 4*x^3/3! + 96*x^5/5! + 5888*x^7/7! + ....
