COMMENT

Denominators are given by A124396.

The sums over central binomial coefficients scaled by powers of 9, r(n):=sum(binomial(2*k,k)/9^k,k=0..n) have the limit s:=lim(r(n),n->infinity) = 3/sqrt(5). From the expansion of 1/sqrt(1-x) for x=4/9.

FORMULA

a(n)=numerator(r(n)) with the rationals r(n):=sum(binomial(2*k,k)/9^k,k=0..n) in lowest terms.

r(n)=sum(((2*k-1)!!/((2*k)!!)*(4/9)^k,k=0..n),n>=0, with the double factorials A001147 and A000165.

EXAMPLE

a(3)=965 because r(3)=1+2/9+2/27+20/729 = 965/729 = a(3)/A124396(3).
