FORMULA

a(n)=(3^(2*n)+3)/4.

G.f.: 1/4*1/(1-9*x)+3/4*1/(1-x).

a(n) = sum(0<=k<=n, 3^k*4^(n-k)*A121314(n,k) ). - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Aug 26 2006

E.g.f.: cosh^3(x). O.g.f.: 1/(1-3*1*x/(1-2*2*x/(1-1*3*x))) (continued fraction). - Peter Bala (pbala(AT)toucansurf.com), Nov 13 2006

(-1)^n*a(n)=sum(0<=k<=n, A086872(n,k)*(-4)^(n-k) ). - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Aug 17 2007
