FORMULA
a(n) = -a(n-1) +2*a(n-3). - Paul Curtz, Apr 23 2008
a(n) = (-1)^n * A077950(n) = (1/5) * (2*A134142(n) + 1). - Ralf Stephan, Aug 18 2013
G.f.: G(0)/(2*(1-x^2)), where G(k)= 1 + 1/(1 - x*(k+1)/(x*(k+2) - 1/G(k+1))); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, May 25 2013
a(n) = (-1)^n * Sum_{k=1..floor((n+2)/2)} binomial(n+2-2*k, k-1)*(-2)^(k-1). - Taras Goy, Sep 18 2019
