Table of n, a(n) for n=0..19.

Formula

E.g.f.: 1/(1 - x*cos(x)/(1 - x*cos(x)/(1 - x*cos(x)/(1 - x*cos(x)/(1 - ...))))), a continued fraction.

a(n) ~ sqrt(2 - 2*r*sqrt(16*r^2 - 1)) * n^(n-1) / (exp(n) * r^n), where r = A196605 = 0.2585985822541894903... is the root of the equation r*cos(r) = 1/4. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 18 2017
