Show that the expression c(m,n) = |e_(2*n-1)(m)|/binomial(m,2*n-1) does not depend on m and c(m,n) = a(n)/A006519(2*n). Indeed, by the formula in the Shevelev link |e_(2*n-1)(m)| = binomial(m,2*n-1)*(4^n-1)*B_(2*n)/n. On the other hand, by Cloitre's formula, we have a(n) = (4^n-1)*|B_(2*n)|*2^A001511(n) /n. Taking into account that 2^A001511 = A006519(2*n) we obtain the claimed equality. Since sign(e_k(n)) = (-1)^((k+1)/2), we have the following application of the sequence: e_k(n) = (-1)^((k+1)/2))*a((k+1)/2)*binomial(n,k)/A006519(k+1). (End) %D A002425 A. Fletcher, J. C. P.
