LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..27.

FORMULA

Constant term in the expansion of Product_{k=1..2*n} (x^(2*k-1)+1/x^(2*k-1)).

a(n) = 2*A156700(n) for n > 0.

EXAMPLE

For n=2 the 2 solutions are +1-3-5+7 = 0 and -1+3+5-7 = 0.

For n=3 the 2 solutions are +1+3+5-7+9-11 = 0 and -1-3-5+7-9+11 = 0.

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := SeriesCoefficient[Product[x^(2k - 1) + 1/x^(2k - 1), {k, 1, 2n}], {x, 0, 0}];
