FORMULA
E.g.f.: exp(x)*(cos(x) + sin(x)).
a(n) = 2^(n/2)*(cos(Pi*n/4) + sin(Pi*n/4)).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} Sum_{i=0..k} binomial(n-k, k-i)*binomial(n, i) *(-1)^(k-i).
a(n) = 2*(a(n-1) - a(n-2)).
From R. J. Mathar, Apr 18 2008: (Start)
a(n) = (1-i)^(n-1) + (1+i)^(n-1) where i=sqrt(-1).
a(n) = 2 Sum_{k=0..(n-1)/2} (-1)^k*binomial(n-1,2k) if n>0. (End)
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A109466(n,k)*2^k. - Philippe Deléham, Oct 28 2008
E.g.f.: (cos(x)+sin(x))*exp(x) = G(0); G(k)=1+2*x/(4*k+1-x*(4*k+1)/(2*(2*k+1)+x-2*(x^2)*(2*k+1)/((x^2)-(2*k+2)*(4*k+3)/G(k+1)))); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Nov 26 2011
G.f.: U(0) where U(k)= 1 + x*(k+3) - x*(k+1)/U(k+1) ; (continued fraction, 1-step). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Oct 10 2012
a(n) = Re((1+i)^n) + Im((1+i)^n) where i = sqrt(-1) = A146559(n) + A009545(n). - Philippe Deléham, Feb 13 2013
a(n) = Sum_{j=0..n} binomial(n, j)*(-1)^binomial(j, 2); this is the case m=2 and z=-1 of f(m,n)(z) = Sum_{j=0..n} binomial(n, j)*z^binomial(j, m). See Dilcher and Ulas. - Michel Marcus, Sep 01 2020
