abs(a(n)) has e.g.f. sinh(sinh(x)) (odd powers only).
abs(a(n)) is the number of partitions of the set {1, 2, ..., 2*n-1} into an odd number of blocks, each containing an odd number of elements. - Isabel C. Lugo (izzycat(AT)gmail.com), Aug 23 2004

a(n) = Sum_{j=1..n+1} (1/(4^(j-1)*(2*j-1)!)) * Sum_{i=0..(2*j-1)/2} (2*i-2*j+1)^(2*n+1) * binomial(2*j-1,i)*(-1)^(n-i-1). - Vladimir Kruchinin, Jun 09 2011
