%F A076552 From _Peter Bala_, Jul 26 2013: (Start)
%F A076552 It appears that a(n) = 1/3*(A000364(n) - 2*(-1)^n). See A060082.
%F A076552 Conjectural e.g.f. with offset 0 (checked up to a(14)): 1/3*(2 - cos(x)^2 + 2*cos(x)^4)/cos(x)^3 = 1 + x^2/2! + 21*x^4/4! + 461*x^6/6! + .... (End)
%F A076552 G.f.: 1/(Q(0)*3*x) + 2/(3*x^2*(1+x)) - 2/(3*x^2) + 1/(3*x), where Q(k) = 1 - x*(k+1)^2/Q(k+1) ; (continued fraction). - _Sergei N. Gladkovskii_, Sep 19 2013
%F A076552 a(n) = (2n)! * [x^(2n)] 1/3-2*sin(x)/(3*tan(2*x)). - _Vladimir Kruchinin_, Apr 08 2015
%F A076552 Conjecture: a(n) = -1/3*(-4)^n*E(2*n,-1/2), where E(n,x) is the n-th Euler polynomial. - _Peter Bala_, Sep 25 2016
