In A160464 the coefficients of the ES1 matrix are defined. This matrix led to the discovery that the successive differences of the ES1[1-2*m,n] coefficients for m = 1, 2, 3, ..., are equal to the values of zeta'(-2n), see also A094665 and A160468. - Johannes W. Meijer, May 24 2009

zeta'(-2n), which is mentioned in the Name, is irrational. For n > 0, a(n) is the numerator of the rational fraction g(n) = Pi^(2n)*zeta'(-2n)/zeta(2n+1). The denominator is 4*A048896(n-1). g(n) = f(n) for n > 0, where f(n) is given in the Formula section. Also, f(n) = Bernoulli(2n)/z(n)/4 (see Formula section) for all n.
For n = 0, zeta'(0) = -log(2Pi)/2, g(0) can be set to 0 because of the infinite denominator. However, a(0) is set to 1 because it is the numerator of f(0).
It seems that -4*f(n)*alpha_n = A000182(n), where alpha_n = A191657(n, p(n)) / A191658(n, p(n)) [where p(n) = A000041(n)] is the n-th "elementary coefficient" from the paper by Izaurieta et al. (End)

Formula

a(n) = numerator(f(n)) where f(n) = (2*n)!/2^(2*n + 1)(-1)^n, from the Mathematica code.

|a(n)| = A049606(2n).
a(n) = -numerator(Bernoulli(2n)/z(n)) where Bernoulli(2n) = A000367(n) / A002445(n) and z(n) = A046988(n) / A002432(n) for n > 0. (End) [Corrected by Andrey Zabolotskiy, Sep 23 2021]
