FORMULA

G.f.: (1-sqrt(1-8*x+4*x^2))/2 - Michael Somos, Jun 08, 2000.

Another recurrence formula: n*a(n)=(8*n-12)*a(n-1)-(4*n-12)*a(n-2) [From Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr), Dec 16 2009]

G.f.: A(x)=(1-sqrt(1-8*x+4*x^2))/(2*x)= 1 + (1 - G(0))/x; G(k)= 1 + 2*x - 3*x/G(k+1); (continued fraction, 1-step ). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jan 05 2012

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=polcoeff((1-sqrt(1-8*x+4*x^2+x*O(x^n)))/2, n)
