COMMENTS

The binomial transform of the "original" Bernoulli numbers is 1, 3/2, 13/6, ... as mentioned in A164558.

The first differences of that sequence are 3/2 - 1 = 1/2, 13/6 - 3/2 = 2/3, 5/6, 29/30, 31/30, ... and the numerators of these differences are listed here.

The bisection a(2n) reappears (up to signs) as A162173(n+1).

FORMULA

a(2n) + A000367(n) = A006954(n+1) = A051717(2n+1).

a(2n+1) + a(2n+2) = A051717(2n+2) + A051717(2n+3), n > 0.
