FORMULA

a(n)=(2/(n+1))*C(3n,n)-(1/(n+1))*C(2n,n); a(n)=A007226(n)-A000108(n); - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Nov 05 2006

G.f.: A(x) = x/[1 - xC(x)F(x) - xF(x)^2] where C(x) is g.f. of Catalan numbers (A000108): C(x) = 1 + xC(x)^2 and F(x) is g.f. of ternary numbers (A001764): F(x) = 1 + xF(x)^3. - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Jun 06 2007

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=local(A000108, A001764); A000108=Ser(vector(n+1, r, binomial(2*r-2, r-1)/r)); A001764=Ser(vector(n+1, r, binomial(3*r-3, r-1)/(2*r-1))); polcoeff(x/(1-x*A000108*A001764-x*A001764^2 +x*O(x^n)), n)} - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Jun 06 2007
