FORMULA
a(n) = binomial(2*n-7, 8) if n >= 8 else 0.
G.f.: (9+84*x+126*x^2+36*x^3+x^4)/(1-x)^9.
a(n) = A053123(n,8), n >= 8; a(n) := 0, n=0..7, (ninth column of shifted Chebyshev's S-triangle, decreasing order).
From Amiram Eldar, Oct 21 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=8} 1/a(n) = 37276/105 - 512*log(2).
Sum_{n>=8} (-1)^n/a(n) = 592/21 - 16*Pi + 32*log(2). (End)
