%F a(n+1) = Sum_{k = 0..n} A086646(n, k)*(-4)^k*9^(n-k). - _Philippe Deléham_, Aug 26 2005

%F From _Peter Bala_, Mar 13 2015: (Start)

%F a(n+1) = (-1)^n*6^(2*n)*E(2*n,1/6).

%F Assuming an offset of 0, the e.g.f. is cos(2*x)/cos(3*x) = 1 + 5*x + 205*x^2/2! + 22265*x^3/3! + 4544185*x^4/4! + ....

%F O.g.f. as a continued fraction: x/(1 - (3^2 - 2^2)*x/(1 - 6^2*x/(1 - (9^2 - 2^2)*x/(1 - 12^2*x/(1 - ... ))))) = x + 5*x^2 + 205*x^3 + 22265*x^4 + 4544185*x^5 + .... See Josuat-Vergès and Kim, p. 23. Cf. A086646.

%F The expansion of exp( Sum_{n >= 1} a(n+1)*x^n/n ) = exp( 5*x + 205*x^2/2 + 22265*x^3/3 + 4544185 *x^4/4 + ... ) appears to have integer coefficients. See A255884.

%F A(x) = 1/(1 + 25*x - 30*x/(1 - 6*x/(1 + 25*x - 132*x/(1 - 84*x/(1 + 25*x - ... - 6*n*(6*n - 1)*x/(1 - 6*n*(6*n - 5)*x/(1 + 25*x - ))))))). (End)
