FORMULA
G.f.: 1/sqrt(1 - 4*x + 16*x^2). - Vladeta Jovovic, May 13 2003
Scaled Legendre polynomials evaluated at 1/2: 2^(2n)P(n, 1/2). - Michael Somos, Dec 03 2001
a(n) = (-1)^n*Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)^2*(-3)^k. - Benoit Cloitre, Oct 25 2003
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} C(n,k)*C(2(n-k),n)(-4)^k. - Paul Barry, Sep 08 2004
D-finite with recurrence: n*a(n) + 2*(1-2*n)*a(n-1) + 16*(n-1)*a(n-2) = 0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 14 2011
G.f.: G(0), where G(k) = 1 + x*(1-x)*(4*k+1)/( 4*k+2 - x*(1-x)*(4*k+2)*(4*k+3)/(x*(1-x)*(4*k+3) + 4*(k+1)/G(k+1) )); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jul 06 2013
a(n) ~ 2^(2*n+1)*sin(Pi/12*(4*n+5))/(3^(1/4)*sqrt(Pi*n)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 30 2013
a(n) = [x^n] ((1 - x)*(1 + 3*x))^n. - Peter Bala, Aug 16 2015
a(n) = 4^n*hypergeom([-n,1+n], [1], 1/4). - Peter Luschny, May 09 2016
From Peter Bala, Nov 28 2021: (Start)
a(n) = 4^(2*n+1)*Sum_{k >= n} (-1)^(n+k)*C(k,n)^2*(1/3)^(k+1).
a(n) = (-1)^n*hypergeom([-n,-n], [1], -3).
a(n) = (4/3)*(16/3)^n*hypergeom([n+1,n+1], [1], -1/3). (End)
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 + 2*x - 2*x^2 - 28*x^3 - 74*x^4 + 92*x^5 + 1324*x^6 + 3656*x^7 + ...
MAPLE
a := n -> 4^n*hypergeom([-n, 1+n], [1], 1/4);
seq(simplify(a(n)), n=0..26); # Peter Luschny, May 09 2016
