FORMULA

O.g.f.: 1/c(x)^5 = P(6, x) - x*P(5, x)*c(x) with the o.g.f. c(x) = (1-sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*x) of A000108 (Catalan numbers) and the polynomials P(n, x) defined in A115139. Here P(6, x)=1-4*x+3*x^2 and P(5, x)=1-3*x+x^2.

a(n) = -C5(n-5), n>=5, with C5(n) = A000344(n+2) (fifth convolution of Catalan numbers). a(0)=1, a(1)=-5, a(2)=5, a(3)=0=a(4). [1, -5, 5] is row n=5 of signed A034807 (signed Lucas polynomials). See A115149 and A034807 for comments.

D-finite with recurrence +n*(n-5)*a(n) -2*(n-3)*(2*n-7)*a(n-1)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Sep 23 2021

From Peter Bala, Mar 05 2023: (Start)

a(n) = binomial(2*n - 6, n) - binomial(2*n - 6, n + 1).

a(n) = = -5/(n - 5)*binomial(2*n - 6, n) for n != 5.

a(n) = -A000344(n-3) for n >= 5. (End)
