Index entries for sequences related to boustrophedon transform

Formula

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k) * binomial(n,k) * A000108(k) * A000111(n-k).

Mathematica

nmax = 24; CoefficientList[Series[Exp[2 x] (BesselI[0, 2 x] - BesselI[1, 2 x])/(Sec[x] + Tan[x]), {x, 0, nmax}], x] Range[0, nmax]!
t[n_, 0] := CatalanNumber[n]; t[n_, k_] := t[n, k] = t[n, k - 1] - t[n - 1, n - k]; a[n_] := t[n, n]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 24}]
