FORMULA

See Velucchi link or the PARI program. Note that the polynomial whose coefficient of a^k is divided by 8 differs based upon whether the term's index is even or odd.

Let A(n) = C(n^2, n); B(n) = C((n^2-(n mod 2))/2, n/2); C(n) = C((n^2-(n mod 2))/4, n/4); D(n) = Sum(p = 0 to [n/2], C((n^2-n)/2, p)*C(n, n-2p)). Then a(n) = (A(n) + 3B(n) + 2C(n) + 2D(n))/8 if n == 0 (mod 4), (A(n) + B(n) + 2C(n) + 4D(n))/8 if n == 1 (mod 4), (A(n) + 3B(n) + 2D(n))/8 if n == 2 (mod 4), (A(n) + B(n) + 4D(n))/8 if n == 3 (mod 4). - David W.
