Comments

The a(n) appeared in the analysis of A220002, a sequence related to the Catalan numbers.

The first Maple program makes use of a program by Peter Luschny for the calculation of the a(n) values. The second Maple program shows that this sequence has a beautiful internal structure, see the first formula, while the third Maple program makes optimal use of this internal structure for the fast calculation of a(n) values for large n.

The cross references lead to sequences that have the same internal structure as this sequence.

Formula

a((2*n-1)*2^p) = 4^p*(n-1) + 2^(p-1)*(1+2^p), p >= 0 and n >= 1. Observe that a(2^p) = A007582(p).

a(n) = ((n+1)/2)*(A060818(n)/A060818(n-1))

a(n) = (-1/64)*(q(n+1)/q(n))/(2*n+1) with q(n) = (-1)^(n+1)*2^(4*n-5)*(2*n)!*A060818(n-1) or q(n) = (1/8)*A220002(n-1)*1/(A098597(2*n-1)/A046161(2*n))*1/(A008991(n-1)/A008992(n-1))

Recurrence: a(2n) = 4a(n) - 2^A007814(n), a(2n+1) = n+1. - Ralf Stephan, Dec 17 2013
