COMMENTS

Stirling transform of (-1)^n*a(n-1)=[0,2,-2,12,-24,...] is A052856(n-1)=[0,2,4,14,76,...]. - Michael Somos Mar 04 2004

FORMULA

Recurrence: {a(0)=0, a(1)=2, a(2)=2, (-2-n^2-3*n)*a(n)+a(n+2)=0}

Sum(1/2*(2+_alpha)*_alpha^(-1-n), _alpha=RootOf(-1+_Z^2))*n!

E.g.f.: x(x+2)/(1-x^2). a(2n+1)=2(2n+1)!. a(2n)=(2n)!, if n>0.

n! if n is even, 2n! otherwise. a(n) = n!*A000034(n).

a(n) = n! / gcd(n, tri(n)) where tri(n) is the n-th triangle number. - Andrew Plewe (aplewe(AT)sbcglobal.net), Jan 09 2006

MAPLE

spec := [S, {S=Prod(Z, Union(Sequence(Z), Sequence(Prod(Z, Z))))}, labeled]: seq(combstruct[count](spec, size=n), n=0..20);

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<0, 0, n!*polcoeff((x^2+2*x)/(1-x^2)+x*O(x^n), n))

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<1, 0, n!*(n%2+1))

(PARI) tri(n) = (n * (n + 1)) / 2 rclu(n) = n! / gcd(n, tri(n)) (Plewe)
