FORMULA
Conjecture: (n+1)*a(n) +2*(1-4*n)*a(n-1) + 4*(4*n-5)*a(n-2) +4*(5-2*n)*a(n-3)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 15 2011
G.f.: (1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x*(1 - x)/(1 - 2*x)))/(2*x). - G. C. Greubel, Jan 04 2017
G.f. A(x) satisfies: A(x) = 1 + x * (1/(1 - 2*x) + A(x)^2). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jun 30 2020
a(n) ~ 5^(1/4) * 2^(n-1) * phi^(2*n + 3/2) / (sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)), where phi = A001622 = (1+sqrt(5))/2 is the golden ratio. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 30 2020
