%N Coefficients of Chebyshev polynomials.

%C If X is an n-set and Y a fixed 2-subset of X then a(n-5) is equal to the number of (n-5)-subsets of X intersecting Y. - _Milan Janjic_, Jul 30 2007

%C a(n-1) = risefac(n,5)/5! - risefac(n,3)/3! is for n >= 1 also the number of independent components of a symmetric traceless tensor of rank 5 and dimension n. Here risefac is the rising factorial. Put a(0) = 0. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Dec 10 2015
