From Peter Bala, Dec 22 2021: (Start)
Conjectures:
1) Taking the sequence (a(n))n>=1 modulo an integer k gives a purely periodic sequence with period dividing phi(k). For example, the sequence taken modulo 21 begins [11, 4, 20, 10, 17, 1, 11, 4, 20, 10, 17, 1, 11, 4, 20, 10, 17, 1, ...] with an apparent period of length 6, which divides phi(21) = 12.
2) For i >= 0, define a_i(n) = a(n+i). Then for each i the Gauss congruences a_i(n*p^k) == a_i(n*p^(k-1)) ( mod p^k ) hold for all prime p and positive integers n and k. If true, then for each i the expansion of exp(Sum_{n >= 1} a_i(n)*x^n/n) has integer coefficients.
3) a(m*n) == a(m)^n (mod 2^k) for k = 2*v_2(m) + 4, where v_p(i) denotes the p-adic valuation of i.
4)(i) a(2*m*n) == a(n)^(2*m) (mod 2^k) for k = v_2(m) + 4
(ii) a((2*m+1)*n) == a(n)^(2*m+1) (mod 2^k) for k = v_2(m) + 4. (End)

FORMULA

E.g.f.: Sum_{k>=0} a(k)x^(2k+1)/(2k+1)! = sin(x)/cos(2x).
a(n) = (-1)^n*L(X,-2n+1) where L(X,z) is the Dirichlet L-function L(X,z) = Sum_{k>=0} X(k)/k^z and where X(k) is the Dirichlet character Legendre(k,2) which begins 1,0,-1,0,-1,0,1,0,1,0,-1,0,-1,0,1,0,1,0,-1,0.... - Benoit Cloitre, Mar 22 2009
From Peter Bala, Mar 24 2009: (Start)
Basic hypergeometric generating function:
2*exp(-t)*Sum_{n = 0..inf} (Product_{k = 1..n} (1-exp(-16*k*t))/Product_{k = 1..n+1} (1+exp(-(16*k-8)*t))) = 1 + 11*t + 361*t^2/2! + 24611*t^3/3! + .... For other sequences with generating functions of a similar type see A000364, A002105, A002439, A079144 and A158690.
a(n) = (-1)^(n+1)*L(-2*n-1), where L(s) is the Dirichlet L-function L(s) = 1 - 1/3^s - 1/5^s + 1/7^s + - - + ... [Andrews et al., Theorem 5]. (End)
From Peter Bala, Jun 18 2009: (Start)
a(n) = (-1)^n*B_(2*n+2)(X)/(2*n+2), where B_n(X) denotes the X-Bernoulli number with X a Dirichlet character modulus 8 given by X(8*n+1) = X(8*n+7) = 1, X(8*n+3) = X(8*n+5) = -1 and X(2*n) = 0. See A161722 for the values of B_n(X).
For the theory and properties of the generalized Bernoulli numbers B_n(X) and the associated generalized Bernoulli polynomials B_n(X,x) see [Cohen, Section 9.4].
The present sequence also occurs in the evaluation of the finite sum of powers Sum_{i = 0..m-1} {(8*i+1)^n - (8*i+3)^n - (8*i+5)^n + (8*i+7)^n}, n = 1,2,... - see A151751 for details. (End)
G.f. 1/G(0) where G(k) = 1 + x - x*(4*k+3)*(4*k+4)/(1 - (4*k+4)*(4*k+5)*x/G(k+1)); (continued fraction, 2-step). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Aug 11 2012
G.f.: 1/E(0) where E(k) = 1 - 11*x - 32*x*k*(k+1) - 16*x^2*(k+1)^2*(4*k+3)*(4*k+5)/E(k+1) (continued fraction, 1-step). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Sep 17 2012
a(n) ~ (2*n+1)! * 2^(4*n+7/2) / Pi^(2*n+2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 03 2014
a(n) = (-1)^n*2^(6*n+4)*(Zeta(-2*n-1,5/8)-Zeta(-2*n-1,7/8)). - Peter Luschny, Oct 15 2015
From Peter Bala, May 11 2017: (Start)
G.f. A(x) = 1 + 11*x + 361*x^2 + ... = 1/(1 + x - 12*x/(1 - 20*x/(1 + x - 56*x/(1 - 72*x/(1 + x - ... - 4*n*(4*n - 1)*x/(1 - 4*n*(4*n + 1)*x/((1 + x) - ...))))))).
A(x) = 1/(1 + 9*x - 20*x/(1 - 12*x/(1 + 9*x - 72*x/(1 - 56*x/(1 + 9*x - ... - 4*n*(4*n + 1)*x/(1 - 4*n*(4*n - 1)*x/(1 + 9*x - ...))))))).
It follows that the first binomial transform of A(x) and the ninth binomial transform of A(x) have continued fractions of Stieltjes-type (S-fractions). (End)
a(n) = (-1)^(n+1)*4^(2*n+1)*E(2*n+1,1/4), where E(n,x) is the n-th Euler polynomial. Cf. A002439. - Peter Bala, Aug 13 2017
From Peter Bala, Dec 04 2021: (Start)
F(x) = exp(x)*(exp(2*x) - 1)/(exp(4*x) + 1) = x - 11*x^3/3! + 361x^5/5! - 24611*x^7/7! + ... is the e.g.f. for the sequence [1, 0, -11, 0, 361, 0, -24611, 0, ...], a signed and aerated version of this sequence.
The binomial transform exp(x)*F(x) = x + 2*x^2/2! - 8*x^3/3! - 40*x^4/4! + + - - is an e.g.f. for a signed version of A000828 (omitting the initial term). (End)
From Peter Bala, Dec 22 2021: (Start)
a(1) = 1, a(n) = (-1)^(n-1) - Sum_{k = 1..n} (-4)^k*C(2*n-1,2*k)*a(n-k).
a(n) == 1 (mod 10); a(5*n+1) == 0 mod(11);
a(n) == - 23^(n+1) (mod 108); a(n) == (7^2)*59^n (mod 144);
a(n) == 11^n (mod 240); a(n) == (11^2)*131^n (mod 360). (End)
