Comments

T(m, n, k) = 2^n * n! * [x^k] [z^n] (2^m*exp(x*z))/(exp(z) + 1)^m are the coefficients of the generalized Euler polynomials (or Euler polynomials of higher order).

The classical case (m=1) is in A004174, this sequence is case m=2. A different normalization for m=1 is given in A058940 and for m=2 in A326485.

Generalized Euler numbers are 2^n*Sum_{k=0..n} T(m, n, k)*(1/2)^k. The classical Euler numbers are in A122045 and for m=2 in A326483.

Let E2_{n}(x) = Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k) x^k. Then E2_{n}(1) = A155585(n+1),

E2_{n}(0) = A326481(n), E2_{n}(-1) = A326482(n), 2^n*E2_{n}(1/2) = A326483(n),

2^n*E2_{n}(-1/2) = A326484(n), [x^n] E2_{n}(x) = A000079(n).
