Comments

Conjecture: this is also the integer sequence A202367 up to sign. These numbers show up in the formula for eigenvectors of Adams operations on the K-theory of unitary groups.

Examples

			p_n(x):=coefficient of t^{2n} of the Maclaurin series of (t/sinh(t))^x
p_0(x)=1
p_1(x)=-x/6
p_2(x)=x(5x+2)/360
p_3(x)=-(35x^3+42x^2+16x)/45360
p_4(x)=175x^4+420x^3+404x^2+144x/5443200
p_5(x)=-(385x^5+1540x^4+2684x^3+2288x^2+768x)/359251200
