FORMULA

0 = -a(n) * n * (2*n + 10) * (7*n + 13) + a(n-1) * (49*n^3 + 252*n^2 + 419*n + 240) + a(n-2) * (2*n + 2) * (2*n + 3) * (7*n + 20). - Michael Somos Jul 14 2009

G.f.: 2 / (1 - 4*x + x^2 + 2*x^3 + (1 - 2*x - x^2) * sqrt(1 - 4*x )). - Michael Somos Jul 14 2009

EXAMPLE

1 + 4*x + 15*x^2 + 54*x^3 + 193*x^4 + 690*x^5 + 2476*x^6 + 8928*x^7 + ...

PROGRAM

(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<0, 0, polcoeff( 2 / (1 - 4*x + x^2 + 2*x^3 + (1 - 2*x - x^2) * sqrt(1 - 4*x + x*O(x^n))), n))}; /* Michael Somos Jul 14 2009 */
