FORMULA

a(n) ~ Gamma(1/4) * exp(8*G*n^2/Pi) / (Pi^(3/4) * sqrt(n) * 4^n), where G is the Catalan's constant A006752. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 05 2021
a(n) = 4^(2*n-1) * Product_{1<=j,k<=n-1} (4 - 4*cos(j*Pi/(2*n))*cos(k*Pi/(2*n)))*(4 + 4*cos(j*Pi/(2*n))*cos(k*Pi/(2*n))); [Knuth Eq. (8) p. 3]. - Seiichi Manyama, Jan 05 2021
