COMMENTS

These are scaled central factorial numbers (see the discussion in the Comments section of A008955). The coefficients in the expansion of Product_{i=1..n} (x - i^2) give A008955, and the coefficients in the expansion of Product_{i=1..n} (x - (2i+1)^2) give A008956.

For example, for n=2, (x-4)(x-16) = x^2 - 20x + 64 => [1, -20, 64].

MAPLE

Q:= n -> if n mod 2 = 0 then sort(expand(mul(x-4*i^2, i=1..n/2)));

else sort(expand(mul(x-(2*i+1)^2, i=0..(n-1)/2))); fi;

for n from 0 to 10 do

t1:=eval(Q(2*n)); t1d:=degree(t1);

t12:=y^t1d*subs(x=1/y, t1); t2:=seriestolist(series(t12, y, 20));

lprint(t2);
