Cvitanovic et al. paper relates this sequence to A000698 and A005413 [From Robert Munafo, Jan 24 2010]
(1 + 4x + 25x^2 + 208x^3 + ...) = (1 + 2x + 7x^2 + 38x^3 + ...) * 1/(1 + x + 2x^2 + 7x^3 + 38x^4 + ...); where A094664 = (1, 2, 7, 38, 286,...). - Gary W. Adamson, Nov 16 2011.

FORMULA

See recurrence in Martin-Kearney paper.
From Peter Bala, Mar 07 2011: (Start)
O.g.f.: A(x) = sum {n = 1..inf} a(n)*x^(2*n) = x^2 + 4*x^4 + 25*x^6 + 208*x^8 + ....
The function F(x) := 1 + A(x) satisfies the differential equation F(x) = 1 + x^3*d/dx(F(x)) + x^2*F(x)^2 (equation 3.53, P. Cvitanovic et al.).
Conjectural o.g.f. as a continued fraction:
x^2/(1-4*x^2-3^2*x^4/(1-8*x^2-5^2*x^4/(1-12*x^2-7^2*x^4/(1-16*x^2-...)))).
Asymptotics: a(n) ~ 1/Pi*2^(n+1)*n!*(1-1/(2*n)-3/(8*n^2)).
(End)
a(n) = (2*n - 4) * a(n-1) + Sum_{k=1..n-1} a(k) * a(n-k) if n>1. - Michael Somos, Jul 24 2011
G.f.: 1/Q(0) where Q(k) = 1 - x*(2*k+1)/(1 - x*(2*k+3)/Q(k+1) ); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Mar 19 2013
G.f.: 1/x^2 - 1/x - Q(0)/x^2, where Q(k)= 1 - x*(2*k+1)/(1 - x*(2*k+1)/Q(k+1)); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, May 20 2013
