SOME PROPERTIES OF A SEQUENCE ANALOGOUS TO EULER NUMBERS
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2012
Abstract
Let $\{U_n\}$ be given by
$U_0=1$ and
$U_n=-2\sum _{k=1}^{[n/2]} \binom n{2k}U_{n-2k}\ (n\ge 1)$, where
$[\cdot ]$ is the greatest integer function. Then
$\{U_n\}$ is analogous to the Euler numbers and
$U_{2n}=3^{2n}E_{2n}(\frac 13)$, where
$E_m(x)$ is the Euler polynomial. In a previous paper we gave many properties of
$\{U_n\}$. In this paper we present a summation formula and several congruences involving
$\{U_n\}$.
