Comments

Peter Luschny introduced the extended Genocchi numbers A226158(n), an autosequence of the first kind. They are linked to the second Bernoulli numbers B+(n) = A164555(n)/A027642(n). Here + is an exponent.

This yields the possible Genocchi twin numbers: -1, -1 followed by a(n).

Formula

a(n) = A226158(n+2) - A226158(n+1).

a(n) = 2*(2^(n+1) -1)*B+(n+1) -2*(2^(n+2) -1)*B+(n+2).

Mathematica

a[n_] := (n+2)*EulerE[n+1, 0] - (n+1)*EulerE[n, 0]; a[0] = 0; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 30}] (* or: *)
Join[{0}, Array[#*EulerE[#-1, 0]&, 32] // Differences // Rest]
