FORMULA
a(n) is multiplicative with a(2) = 3, a(2^e) = 2^(e-1) if e>1, a(p^e) = p^e if p>2.
Euler transform of length 6 sequence [3, -3, 1, 2, 0, -1].
G.f.: x * (1 + x) * (1 + x^3) / ((1 - x) * (1 + x^2))^2.
G.f.: x * (1 - x^2)^3 * (1 - x^6) / ((1 - x)^3 * (1 - x^3) * (1 - x^4)^2). - Michael Somos, May 04 2015
G.f.: f(x) - f(-x^2) where f(x) := x/(1-x)^2. - Michael Somos, May 04 2015
a(n) = -a(-n) for all n in Z. a(n) = n/2 * A068073(n).
a(n) = n*(4-i^n-(-i)^n)/4 with i=sqrt(-1). - Bruno Berselli, Mar 10 2011
