COMMENT

Signed version of A010551, with leading zero.

FORMULA

a(n) = (-1)^(n-1) * [(n-1)/2]! * [n/2]! for n>0, with a(0)=0. E.g.f.: A(x) = (1-x/2)/sqrt(1-x^2/4)*acos(1-x^2/2).

EXAMPLE

E.g.f.: A(x) = x - 1/2!*x^2 + 1/3!*x^3 - 2/4!*x^4 + 4/5!*x^5

- 12/6!*x^6 + 36/7!*x^7 - 144/8!*x^8 + 576/9!*x^9 +...

where A(x)*A(-x) = -acos(1-x^2/2)^2.

PROGRAM

(PARI) {a(n, q=-1)=local(A=Mat(1), B); if(n<0, 0, for(m=1, n+1, B=matrix(m, m); for(i=1, m, for(j=1, i, if(j==i, B[i, j]=1, if(j==1, B[i, j]=(A^q)[i-1, 1], B[i, j]=(A^q)[i-1, j-1])); )); A=B); B=sum(i=1, #A, -(A^0-A)^i/i); return(n!*B[n+1, 1]))}
