Table of n, a(n) for n=0..15.

FORMULA

Sum_{k>=0} (2*k + 1) * exp(-x*(k^2 + k)) ~ (1/x) * Sum_{k>=0} a(k) * (2*x)^k / (2*k + 1)!.

EXAMPLE

1 + 3*exp(-2*x) + 5*exp(-6*x) + 7*exp(-10*x) + ... ~ 1/x + 1/3 + (1/15)*

x + (4/315)*x^2 + ...

PROG

(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<0, 0, sum( j=0, n, bernfrac(n+j) / (n-j)! / j!) * (2*n + 1)! / (-2)^n)}
