a(n) = coefficient of x^n/n! in power series expansion of 2*(tan(x) + sec(x)) - 2 - x. - Michael Somos, Feb 05 2011 a(n) = 4*|Li_{-n}(i)| - [n=1] = Sum_{m=0..n/2} (-1)^m*2^(1-k)*Sum_{j=0..k} binomial(k,j)*(-1)^j*(k-2*j)^(n+1)/k - [n=1], where k = k(m) = n+1-2*m and [n=1] equals 1 if n=1 and zero else; Li denotes the polylogarithm (and i^2 = -1). - M. F. Hasler, May 20 2012 Let E(x) = 2/(1-sin(x))-1 (essentially the e.g.f.), then
E(x) = -1 + 2*(-1/x + 1/(1-x)/x - x^3/((1-x)*((1-x)*G(0) + x^2))) where G(k) = (2*k+2)*(2*k+3)-x^2+(2*k+2)*(2*k+3)*x^2/G(k+1); (continued fraction, Euler's 1st kind, 1-step).
E(x) = -1 + 2*(-1/x + 1/(1-x)/x - x^3/((1-x)*((1-x)*G(0) + x^2))) where G(k) = 8*k + 6 - x^2/(1 + (2*k+2)*(2*k+3)/G(k+1)); (continued fraction, Euler's 2nd kind, 2-step).
E(x) = (tan(x) + sec(x))^2 = -1 + 2/(1-x*G(0)) where G(k) = 1 - x^2/(2*(2*k+1)*(4*k+3) - 2*x^2*(2*k+1)*(4*k+3)/(x^2 - 4*(k+1)*(4*k+5)/G(k+1))); (continued fraction, 3rd kind, 3-step).

COMMENTS
The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions. A sequence is alternating if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either. For example, the partition (3,2,2,2,1) has no alternating permutations, even though it does have the anti-run permutations (2,3,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,3,2).

Such a permutation is characterized by being neither a twin (x,x) nor wiggly ( A025047, A345192). A sequence is wiggly if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either. For example, the partition (3,3,2,2,2,2,1) has no wiggly permutations, even though it has the anti-run permutations (2,3,2,3,2,1,2), (2,3,2,1,2,3,2), and (2,1,2,3,2,3,2).

COMMENTS
Differs from A335448 in lacking squares and having 270 etc. First differs from A345193 in having 270. Such a permutation is characterized by being neither a twin (x,x) nor wiggly ( A025047, A345192). A sequence is wiggly if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either. For example, the partition (3,2,2,2,1) has no wiggly permutations, even though it has anti-run permutations (2,3,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,3,2). The Heinz number of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is prime(y_1)*...*prime(y_k). This gives a bijective correspondence between positive integers and integer partitions.
EXAMPLE
The sequence of terms together with their prime indices begins:
8: {1,1,1}
16: {1,1,1,1}
24: {1,1,1,2}
27: {2,2,2}
32: {1,1,1,1,1}
40: {1,1,1,3}
48: {1,1,1,1,2}

81: {2,2,2,2}
88: {1,1,1,5}
96: {1,1,1,1,1,2}
For example, 36 has prime indices (1,1,2,2), which has the two wiggly permutations (1,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,1), so 36 is not in the sequence.

COMMENTS
The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions. A sequence is alternating if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either. For example, the partition (3,2,2,2,1) has no alternating permutations, even though it does have the anti-run permutations (2,3,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,3,2).
