COMMENT

Comment from Matthijs Coster, Apr 28, 2004: This is the Taylor expansion of a special point on a curve described by Beauville.

a(n) is the (2n)th moment of the distance from the origin of a 3-step random walk in the plane - Peter M. W. Gill (peter.gill(AT)nott.ac.uk), Feb 27 2004

FORMULA

a(n) = Sum_{m=0..n} binomial(n, m) A000172(m) [Barrucand]

(n+1)^2 a_{n+1} = (10n^2+10n+3) a_{n} - 9n^2 a_{n-1}. - Matthijs Coster, Apr 28, 2004

Sum_{n>=0} a(n)x^n/n!^2 = BesselI(0, 2*sqrt(x))^3. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)Eunet.yu), Mar 11 2003

a(n) = Sum_{p+q+r=n} (n!/(p!q!r!))^2 with p,q,r >=0. - Michael Somos Jul 25 2007

a(n)=3*A087457(n)for n>0 . [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Sep 14 2008]
