Corollary 8 in Chapman et alia says: "For n>=1, there are binomial(4n,2n) binary sequences of length 4n+1 with the property that for all j, the jth occurrence of 10 appears in positions 4j+1 and 4j+2 or later (if it exists at all)." - Peter Luschny, Nov 21 2011

FORMULA

Using Stirling's formula in sequence A000142 it is easy to get the asymptotic expression a(n) ~ 16^n / sqrt(2 * Pi * n) - Dan Fux (dan.fux(AT)OpenGaia.com or danfux(AT)OpenGaia.com), Apr 07 2001
a(n)= 2*A001700(2*n-1) = (2*n+1)*C(2*n), n >= 1, C(n) := A000108(n) (Catalan). G.f.: (1-y*((1+4*y)*c(y)-(1-4*y)*c(-y)))/(1-(4*y)^2) with y^2=x, c(y)= g.f. for A000108 (Catalan). - Wolfdieter Lang, Dec 13 2001
a(n) ~ 2^(-1/2)*pi^(-1/2)*n^(-1/2)*2^(4*n)*{1 - 1/16*n^-1 + ...} - Joe Keane (jgk(AT)jgk.org), Jun 11 2002
a(n) = (1/Pi)*integral(x=-2..2, (2+x)^(2*n)/sqrt((2-x)*(2+x))). Peter Luschny, Sep 12 2011]
G.f.: (1/2) * (1/(1+4*x^(1/2))^(1/2) + 1/(1-4*x^(1/2))^(1/2)) - Mark van Hoeij, Oct 25 2011.
sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 16/15 +pi*sqrt(3)/27 -2*sqrt(5)*log(phi)/25, [T. Trif, Fib Quart 38 (2000) 79] with phi=A001622. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 18 2012
n*(2*n-1)*a(n) -2*(4*n-1)*(4*n-3)*a(n-1)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Dec 02 2012
