COMMENTS
(-1)^n*a(n) = 2^n*(2^n-1)*Bernoulli(n), n >= 1, are integers divisible by n. See the Koecher reference, p. 175, Satz, with a proof, and the J. Worpitzky and L. Kronecker JraM references 94 (1883) 203-232 and 268-269, respectively. - Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 09 2017

FORMULA
a(0) = 0 and for n > 0 a(n) = n 2^(n-1) E_{n-1}(1) where E_{m}(x) are the Euler polynomials. - Peter Luschny, Jan 26 2009
From Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Apr 04, Nov 23 and Dec 27 2013: (Start)
Continued fractions:
E.g.f.: 2*x/(Q(0)+1) where Q(k) = 1 - 2*x/(2*k+1 - x*(2*k+1)/(x - (k+1)/Q(k+1))).
E.g.f.: 1+2*x + T(0), where T(k) = 4*k-1 - x/(1 + x/( 4*k+1 - x/(1 + x/T(k+1)))).
E.g.f.: 1 + T(0), where T(k) = 4*k-1 + x/(1 - x/( 4*k+1 + x/(1 - x/T(k+1)))).
E.g.f.: x^2*E(0)+x, where E(k) = 1 - x^2/(x^2 + (2*k+1)*(2*k+3)/E(k+1)).
(End)
a(n) = (-1)^n*2^n*(2^n-1)*Bernoulli(n), with Bernoulli(n) = A027641(n)/A027642(n). For |a(n)| see the Koecher reference, p. 175, and a comment above. - Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 09 2017
