Formula

G.f.: (1/2) * Sum_{k>=2} k! * x^(k+2) / (1+x^2)^(k+1).

a(n) = (1/2) * Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)-2} (-1)^k * (n-k-2)! / k!.

Prog

(PARI) my(N=30, x='x+O('x^N)); concat([0, 0, 0, 0], Vec(sum(k=2, N, k!*x^(k+2)/(1+x^2)^(k+1))/2))
(PARI) a(n, k=2, q=2) = sum(j=0, n\q-k, (-1)^j*(n-(q-1)*(j+k))!/j!)/k!;

Crossrefs
