COMMENT

Under reasonable assumptions, a(n)=E[X^{2n}] where the random variable X is the unitarized Frobenius trace X=a_p/sqrt(p) (as p varies) of a genus 2 curve whose Jacobian is isogenous to the product of two elliptic curves, exactly one of which has complex multiplication.

FORMULA

a(n)=(A000891(n)+A000108(n))/2

EXAMPLE

a(2) = 11 because EEWW, EWEW, EWWE, EWNS, ENSW, ENWS, NEWS, NESW, NSEW, NSNS, NNSS are all the walks of length 4 on the upper half of the square lattice that are distinct under reflections about the y-axis.
