Numerator of the n-term of the inverse binomial transform of the modified Bernoulli sequence A176327(k)/A027642(k).
The sequence of modified Bernoulli numbers A176327(k)/A027642(k) is defined to be the same as the Bernoulli sequence, except the term at index k=1 which is zero.
Its inverse binomial transform is 1, -1, 7/6, -3/2, 59/30, -5/2, 127/42, -7/2, 119/30, -9/2, 335/66, -11/2, ...; the numerators define this sequence here.

FORMULA

Conjecture: a(2*n+1) = -2*n-1.
a(n) = numerator((-1)^n*(bernoulli(n, 1) + bernoulli(n, 2))/2. - Peter Luschny, Jun 17 2012
(-1)^n*a(n) are the numerators of the polynomials generated by cosh(x*z)*z/(1-exp(-z)) evaluated x=1 (see the example section). The denominators of these values are A141056. - Peter Luschny, Aug 18 2018

EXAMPLE
|
The first few of the polynomials mentioned in the formula section are: 1, 1/2, 1/6 + x^2, (3/2)*x^2, -1/30 + x^2 + x^4, (5/2)*x^4, 1/42 - (1/2)*x^2 +(5/2)*x^4 + x^6, (7/2)*x^6, -1/30 + (2/3)*x^2 - (7/3)*x^4 + (14/3)*x^6 + x^8, (9/2)*x^8, ... The values of these polynomials at x=1 start 1, 1/2, 7/6, 3/2, 59/30, 5/2, 127/42, 7/2, ... - Peter Luschny, Aug 18 2018
