Comments

Second binomial transform of the expansion of c(-x)^4 (i.e. of (-1)^n*4C(2n+3,n)/(n+4)). The g.f. is transformed to (1-x)^2 under the Chebyshev transformation A(x)->(1/(1+x^2))A(x/(1+x^2)).

Formula

G.f.: (c(x^2)-1)(1-2x)/x^2 with c(x) the g.f. of A000108; a(n)=sum{k=0..n, (k+1)C(n, (n-k)/2)(-1)^k*C(2, k)(1+(-1)^(n-k))/(n+k+2)}; a(n)=sum{k=0..n, (k+1)C(n, (n-k)/2)b(k)(1+(-1)^(n-k))/(n+k+2)} where b(n)=0^n+sum{k=0..n, C(n, k)(-1)^(n-k)(-3k+k(k+1)/2)}; a(2n)=C(n+1); a(2n+1)=-2*C(n+1).

D-finite with recurrence: (n+4)*a(n) +2*a(n-1) -4*n*a(n-2)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 09 2012
