Examples
a(3) = 99 because T[3, x] = 4x^3 - 3x and T[3, 3] = 4*3^3 - 3*3 = 99.

Formula
a(n) = cos(n*arccos(n)).
a(n) ~ 2^(n-1) * n^n. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 19 2019
a(n) = n * Sum_{k=0..n} (2*n-2)^k * binomial(n+k,2*k)/(n+k) for n > 0. - Seiichi Manyama, Mar 05 2021
It appears that a(2*n+1) == 0 (mod (2*n+1)^2) and 2*a(4*n+2) == -2 (mod (4*n+2)^4), while for k > 1, 2*a(2^k*(2*n+1)) == 2 (mod (2^k*(2*n+1))^4). - Peter Bala, Feb 01 2022
