COMMENT

a(n) is the smallest integer strictly greater than the maximum value of p(2n+1,x) in the interval [ -1,-(2n+1)]. Note that this maximum value is attained by p(2n+1,x) at some root of its derivative. [From Max Alekseyev (maxale(AT)gmail.com), Oct 18 2008]

PROGRAM

(PARI) { a(n) = local(p, r, m); p=prod(k=1, 2*n+1, x+k); r=real(polroots(deriv(p))); m=vecmax(vector(#r, j, floor(subst(p, x, r[j])))); if( polsturm(p-m)<=1 || polsturm(p-m-1)>1, error("increase realprecision"); ); m+1 } [From Max Alekseyev (maxale(AT)gmail.com), Oct 18 2008]
