FORMULA

G.f.: 4*x^4/(1-x)^6.

a(n) = n*binomial(n,4)-binomial(n,5) = 4*binomial(n+1,5) = 4*A000389(n+1).

a(n) = 2*A177747(2*n-7), with A177747(-7) = A177747(-5) = A177747(-3) = A177747(-1) = 0.

(n-4)*a(n) = (n+1)*a(n-1).

E.g.f.: (1/30)*x^4*(5+x)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, May 23 2022

Sum_{n>=4} (-1)^n/a(n) = 20*log(2) - 655/48. - Amiram Eldar, Jun 02 2022
