Vladimir Shevelev, A formula for numerator of Euler(n,k), Wed Sep 06 2017.
FORMULA
For even n, a(n) = 2 - delta(n,0), where delta is the Kronecker symbol;
for n==1 (mod 4), a(n) = 2*A006519(n+1) - A002425((n+1)/2);
for n==3 (mod 4), a(n) = 2*A006519(n+1) + A002425((n+1)/2). - Vladimir Shevelev, Sep 04 2017
EXAMPLE
By the formula, we have a(1) = 2*2 - 1 = 3, a(3) = 2*4 + 1 = 9, a(5) = 2*2 - 1 = 3, a(7) = 2*8 + 17 = 33, a(9) = 2*2 - 31 = -27, etc. - Vladimir Shevelev, Sep 04 2017
